About This Item
A very nice copy of the first edition of Holiday's book connecting the Loch Ness Monster with various paranormal phenomena. He also posits a link between dragon legends and UFO stories. A work with something of a cult following. Pages are very good: aside from some foxing on the top and fore edges, the actual pages are bright and clean (none of the edge foxing is present on the actual pages). No inscriptions, notes or creasing, just a minor foxing patch on the FEP (see photos). DJ is very good, price unclipped, all intact with just the most minor shelfwear, and a narrow strip of browning on the flaps. Many illustrations. This is a really nice copy, unusual as such in this state and with a VG DJ. NOT a library copy unlike many of this edition on sale. See photos, all of which are of the copy for sale, we don't use stock photos. More photos on request, thanks!
