Collins, London -- Sydney, 1977. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Good. Illustrator: Edward Wilson -- Cover Art. Blue coloured boards with silver coloured titles to the backstrip. Colour illustrated dustwrapper, showing a detail of a painting by Edward Wilson, with white and orange coloured titles to the front panel and backstrip. Black-and-white photograph of author to the rear fold over panel. This is Thomas Keneally's first detective story. It is an astonishingly vivid and convincing evocation of a polar expedition before the First World War; to read it is to enter the harsh, monastic world, to smell "the cocoa and the acetylene lamps, the drying thermal underwear before the stove and the acid smell of Siberian pony dung..." Still more, it is a compelling study of human nature under stress, of a small group of brave men facing not only the terrors of nature but the still more insidious threat from their own minds. Rubbing of the back strip edges and book corners. Dust marks to the top text block edge. A little rubbing to the dustwrapper edges and panels and sunning of the rear panel. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. IV, 224 pages, last two pages blank. . Please refer to accompanying picture (s). in Illustrator: Edward Wilson -- Cover Art. Quantity Available: 1.
