Penguin Books Ltd, 1948. Reprint. Paperback book. Good/No jacket. Some spotting to covers. Spine cocked. Pages slightly tanned. For more information on our condition gradings, see Terms of Sale below.

Synopsis

In SCOOP , a "newspaper adventure," Evelyn Waugh tells the tale of garden coulumnist William Boot gets sent to Ishmaelia to cover a war, finds everything but a war, and returns as a golden child of British media. Altogether a fine, ascerbic, British satire on the print media in the 1930's.
