First printing, inscribed to a professor colleague by the author of the front endpaper, "for my good friend, Harry Fritz, who's too cheap to buy this book - Gordon H Warren." Near fine hardcover shows a heavy bump to middle of bottom edge of front cover, touch of bumping to top corners and some other mild trace wear, in very good + dust jacket that shows some edgewear that includes wrinkling and a small open chip at bottom edge of front panel. 301 pages with black & whites, index and publisher's mailer as well. Still a pleasing copy of this look at the historical incident that almost brough the Brits into the war on the side of the Confederacy.
