Description:
First edition. Book shows very little wear. Gray paper covered boards with red fabric at the spine, with gilt print. The dust jacket shows a little wear, mostly along the upper and lower edges of the back cover. The dust jacket is plastic over paper, and in a few places the plastic has started to peel, allowing atmospheric moisture to discolor the dyes used on the underlying paper. The deckle-edged pages are clean, tight and unmarked, and loaded with black-and-white illustrations. The author of the Amelia Peabody mysteries, Elizabeth Peters (Barbara Mertz) held a PhD in Egyptology, so was well versed in the history of exploration in the time that those mysteries were set. A rare book. This book will ship at about three pounds. Excess shipping costs are included in the list price.

Description:
Stated first edition. A collection of excerpts from various works of Evelyn Waugh, with a brief biography. Book is in rather good condition with little visible wear, other than mentioned below. The dust jacket has collected a number of tears and wrinkles over the years. The one noticeable flaw is on the back cover where it was once exposed to a bit of water. The water stain runs down the length of the cover and some color was transferred onto the inside of the dust jacket. There is no indication that the water managed to get inside of that back cover. This is a rare book.
