Stephen Morris: A Novel; Pilotage

Two linked novels in one volume.  First edition, first impression.  x, 274pp.  Blue cloth-covered boards, gilt lettering on spine.  8vo.  Cloth pushed at spine ends and perhaps a tad faded.  Text block edges a little dull.  Internally neat, clean, bright and tight.  In its original wraparound dust jacket, designed by Fratini, rubbed at edges with a few very short edge nicks.  Dust wrapper now protected in an archival-quality Mylar wrapper, fitted without the use of tape or adhesives.  Two linked novels, posthumously published, written during the 1920s at a time when Shute was employed in the aircraft industry.
