A.M. Rendel – Appointment In Crete – The Story Of A British Agent – First Edition 1953
£1,350.00
A first edition, first printing of ‘Appointment in Crete’ published by Allan Wingate in 1953. A near fine book without inscriptions – some spotting to the top edge. In the near fine unclipped wrapper which has a little wear to the spine tips and corners. Six minute pin holes. Designed by Rendel’s friend, John Craxton.
The account of a British lawyer-turned-special agent, who served behind enemy lines, alongside Patrick Leigh Fermor, in the Greek resistance, exceptionally scarce in this bright, crisp condition.
