[Nautical Fiction] O'Brian, Patrick.

Master and Commander.

Philadelphia: Lippincott, 1969. First Printing of the First US Edition. This is the true First Printing, preceding the UK edition by one year. A Very Good plus copy with a previous owner inscription on the flyleaf. The price clipped jacket has a closed edge tear, a closed tear to the fold of the rear flap and chipping to the bottom edge of the spine. There is also some of the usualy rubbing to the rear jacket panel. Overall a very respectable copy of an increasingly difficult book to locate in collector's condition. The first book in the Aubrey/Maturin series that inspired the film starring Russell Crowe. Item #24666
