The Silver Sword by Ian Serraillier 1st / 1st 1956

First edition published by Jonathan Cape in 1956. This is a very good or better copy. The jacket is no chips or loss except it is price clipped. There is minimal wear to the spine ends and corners. On the reverse of the jacket is a watermark. The book has a gift inscription on the front free end paper. The boards have a pushed corner but otherwise are clean as are the pages. The book is very good or better.
 
An award winning children's novel set in the second world war. It is brilliantly illustrated by C. Walter Hodges.
