UK first hardcover edition of "The Plague Dogs," by Richard Adams. Gorgeous book in great condition! Won it on a bid for a great price. The book arrived quickly and safely into my greedy hands. The book was wrapped in bubble wrap, then placed inside a sturdy mailer that was folded in half and taped, then placed inside a folded suit of cardboard armor! Fort Knox in a Box! So happy to add this book to my growing Richard Adams book and ephemera collection! Thank you! !!!Seller Highly Recommended!!!

Very fast shipping. Nicely packed and I very much appreciated the detailed description and photos in the listing which were both accurate and much more meaningful than the generic "Good/Very Good/etc" listings that most sellers use. And an excellent price on this hard-to-find item. I would definitely buy from this seller again.

I was so very excited to receive this item. The shipping was fast and the packaging was above-and-beyond, and I really appreciate the extra effort put forth to protect the book during shipping. The item was exactly as described. The value was excellent and Last Exit Books was a pleasure to do business with. Thank you!
