London: Longmans, Green and Co., 1956. First UK edition. 389 pp. Brown textured paper boards; gilt spine titles; dust jacket. Lightly bumped to bottom rear corner; mild toning to endpages and edges of textblock. Unclipped "16/- net" jacket with a few short closed tears and some very small portions of loss at the top tips and crown of spine. Near fine in a very good jacket.
Altogether a fairly handsome first edition copy of the first of Renault's novels set in ancient Greece.
