London: Cassell and Company, Ltd., 1945. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. This is the British first edition, first printing, of the fifth volume of Churchill's war speeches. Between 1941 and 1946, Churchill's war speeches were published in seven individual volumes. The British first editions are visually striking, but were printed on cheap War Economy Standard paper, bound in coarse cloth, and wrapped in bright, fragile dust jackets. They proved highly susceptible to spotting, soiling, and fading, so the passage of time has been hard on most surviving first editions. This first edition, first printing is very good minus in a good plus first printing dust jacket. The blue cloth binding is square, tight, and clean with sharp corners, bright spine gilt and only modest wear to extremities. The contents are internally bright. The chief defect that leads us to grade this copy as only very good minus is prominent spotting to the page edges. Spotting is light internally, primarily confined to the…
