Dublin: Ward River Press, 1980. 1st ed. . Black Cloth. Fine/Fine (-). 13.5 cm x 22.5 cm. xii+chronology+271; trivial production fault crease from top edge pp.xiii-1 (2 leaves) otherwise virtually pristine; unclipped jacket similarly fine but author's name on spine faded. There is a slight ambiguity since verso t.p. states 'This edition first Published November 1980', jacket wraparounds however have numerous extracts from reviews etc., presumably the jacket is therefore a revised version but whether book itself is 1st or a reissue is a little unclear. Will add protective sleeve to jacket when ordered. Classic expose of conditions etc. in the H-Blocks where IRA and UVF prisoners were interned.
