1971 printing. A hardback volume in Very Good condition, in a Good dustjacket. This book is in stock now, in our UK premises. Photos of our books are available on request (the pictures you see on Alibris are NOT our own).
Very helpful little book with maps, diagrams and locales. Small details to assist in reading the Hornblower stories. Not necessary but for Hornblower fans, a plus. I'm glad I got it and wish I'd had it earlier.
