The Reverse of the Medal by Patrick O'Brian, 1st/1st, 1986

This is a near fine copy of Patrick O'Brian's 'The Reverse of the Medal' in first edition, first impression. London, Collins, 1986. The dust jacket is in very near fine condition, with only light patches of browning at the top and tail of the cover- it has not been price clipped. The boards are free from chips and marks and are tightly bound to the spine. The text blocks are bright and clean, but are showing very light signs of foxing. Overall this is a near fine copy.
