[EAN: 9780901720313], Gebraucht, sehr guter Zustand, [PU: London. Rex Collings], CHILDRENS' , ADVENTURE, CLASSIC, Jacket, London. Rex Collings. 1976. Originally issued by this publisher in 1972, this is an early reprint; second edition, sixth impression. Hard Cover. Sage green cloth with gilt titles to the spine. Sunning to the spine and minor fading along the top and bottom edge. Faint tone to the front endpaper and flaps. Jacket is unclipped at £3.95. Colour photography to the jacket by Jane Burton. Jacket and book are at least very good plus approaching near fine and this is an attractive printing of this classic story. Set in Hampshire in southern England, the story features a small group of rabbits. Although they live in their natural wild environment, with burrows, they are anthropomorphised, possessing their own culture, language, proverbs, poetry, and mythology. Evoking epic themes, the novel follows the rabbits as they escape the destruction of their warren and seek a place to establish a new home (the hill of Watership Down), encountering perils and temptations along the way. The novel was rejected many times before Rex Collings who was a one man band publisher took it on. An uncommon reprint in attractive condition. The dust jacket will be covered with a new inert archival protective sleeve which is removable. Please contact us if you would like any more information or additional photographs.
