A first edition, first printing published by Barrie and Jenkins in 1972. A near fine book with dated gift inscription in blue ink on the title page, the text blocks are bright and crisp with some minor marks to the fore-edge and green top stain. In a near fine unclipped wrapper, with some wear to the spine tips with small tear to the foot of the spine. Illustrated by Michael Codd.
Comes complete with signed photograph of the author.

First Blood is a gripping thriller that introduces readers to John Rambo, a troubled Vietnam War veteran pushed to the brink by a small-town sheriff’s hostility. When Rambo is unjustly targeted and hunted, a tense cat-and-mouse game ensues in the dense forests of the Pacific Northwest. Morrell’s novel delves into themes of trauma, survival and the consequences of war, laying the groundwork for the iconic character of Rambo.
