It includes the unfinished novel fragment Coots in the North, where the Death and Glories head to the Lake District for new adventures, plus additional short stories and rare pieces by Ransome.
Condition: Good used condition for age. Light general wear to covers and edges, pages lightly age-toned but clean and intact.
