Description
Pre-owned. The guns of Navarone, vigilant, savage and catastrophically accurate. Navarone itself, grim bastion of narrow straits manned by a mixed garrison of Germans and Italians, an apparently impregnable iron fortress. To Captain Keith Mallory, skllled saboteur, trained mountaineer, fell the task of leading the small party detailed to scale the vast, impossible precipice of Navarone and to blow up the guns. The Guns of Navarone is the story of that mission, the tale of a calculated risk taken in the time of war… Original owner has signed the first page in ink dated 1958. Some waving of the pages. Binding tight. Dust jacket has some light shelfwear, and one single small tear (1.5cm) at top back corner. Some foxing and tanning of the edges and some pages are lightly tanned. Hardcover. Published by Collins, London 1957
