About this copy
This is the true account by Chris Ryan of his solo escape from Iraq following the compromise of the SAS Bravo Two Zero patrol in January 1991. The copyright page states 'First published by Century in 1995' with no later reprint or printing information shown, consistent with a first edition, first printing copy. The book is bound in black boards with a matching dust jacket.
The jacket retains its original printed price of £15.99 on the front flap and does not appear to be price-clipped.
Condition
- Book
- Very Good – boards and text block are clean and tight, with no inscriptions noted.
- Dust jacket
- Good – the glossy jacket shows noticeable rubbing and light surface wear to the front panel and spine, plus minor edge wear to the corners, but remains complete and bright.
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.
