About This Item

Heinemann, London, 1958. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Good. Illustrator: Photographic. 550 g; X, 246 pages, text illustrated with 12 pages of black-and-white photographs. Photographic illustrated dust jacket. Slight darkening of the edges of the text block due to handling and age, the dust jacket is rubbed and chipped in with the worst damage being at the head and tail of the back strip, and along the creases. In his memoirs Commander Bernard tells of his experiences in connection with every crime in the book. Murderers and confidence tricksters, forgers and thieves, blackmailers and saboteurs -- he has met them all in the course of a long, varied and distinguished career, as accounts give the reader an insight not only into the personalities and practices of criminals, but also into the working methods of the police, which are somewhat different from those of the sleuths of detective fiction. -- front fold over blurb Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Please refer to accompanying picture (s). Illustrator: Photographic. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo. Category: Law & Criminal Studies; Inventory No: 0213108. .
