The War Speeches of the Rt. Hon. Winston S. Churchill, 3 volumes
Cassell, London, 1951-52, 1st editions, This collected edition of Churchill’s war speeches has much to recommend it. There are five additional speeches lacking from the wartime volumes, and there is now an index, a most helpful addition. The production standard is far higher. The books are larger at 6 x 10 inches, bound in heavy navy buckram, completely reset with generous margins, on a better grade of paper. Only 4740 sets were produced, so this can be a very elusive title. Books are especially clean and tight with that never read feel to them. No names, page edges even, just a little dusty on the top edges. Dustwrappers are correct, unclipped, condensation marks on covers, some tanning on spines, some cracks at spine ends. (ICS A136a).
