About this copy
The copyright page states 'First published 1956' with no further printing or edition statements, indicating this is a first edition, first printing of this account of the notorious 1876 Charles Bravo poisoning case. This copy is a hardcover in red cloth boards with no dust jacket present. The book includes 30 illustrations plus floor plans of The Priory, Balham, where the events took place.
Condition
- Book
- Good – Red cloth boards show wear at the spine head with some fraying/small chipping, and a small mark to the rear board. Some foxing/staining is visible on the title page and a few preliminary leaves. Text block otherwise appears sound and complete.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
