8vo., First Edition, with facsimiles in the text and endpaper maps; original blue cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper.
The eleventh and final Blandings novel, sadly unfinished at the author's death. Usborne adds invaluable notes and appendices, and the dustwrapper artwork and endpaper maps by Ionicus are wholly delightful. The book provides the most instructive insight into how Plum constructed his novels. The US edition appeared a year later. Connolly 130; Jasen 97; McIlvaine A100a.
