Sharpe's Gold by Bernard Cornwell 1st / 1st 1981

First edition and first print published by Collins in 1981. This is a near fine copy. The wrapper has very little if any wear at all. It is price clipped. The panels and spine have retained all of its colour. There is a faint ghost mark of a small sticker on the page page of around 2 cm's wide. The book is very presentable with no foxing to the pages or the text block. There are no previous owner's names or marks inside either. Overall a very presentable near fine copy.
