First Edition. octavo, grey cloth in dust jacket. 340 pp. Doubleday, Doran, Item #30887

"This young Englishman's vivid and sensitive story of his experiences in Loyalist Spain is an honest record of what war does to a man, rather than a man's record of a war." From the Kirkus Review, "An English pilot tells of his experiences with the Loyalists in Spain, his years in that war-torn country, on the ground and in the air. Madrid -- San Janvier -- Albaoete -- Manises -- near death many times. It is more than daredevil flying. There is a brief romantic interlude, with a tragic ending. There is imprisonment and release. Surface adventure and spiritual and emotional reactions." 1/2" x 1/2" chip at top of front flap fold. Very minor scuffing to top and bottom of jacket spine. The flap is not price clipped but it does reflect a rubber-stamp that lowers the retail price from $3.00 to $2.75. Book very fine and clean.

Price: $165.00
