Item History & Price
INTO BATTLE
Speeches by the
RIGHT HON. WINSTON S. CHURCHILL
P.C., M.P.
Compiled by Randolph S. Churchill, M.P.
2nd Edition February 1941
This is the first volume of Churchill's famous war speeches, containing speeches from May 1938 when Churchill was still out of favor and out of power, to November 1940, six months after Churchill became wartime Prime Minister.
Published by Cassell and Company in February 1941, second edition (the first edition... was also in February 1941). The book is bound in the original blue cloth covered boards with gold titling on the spine, and measures approx. 8 5/8" x 5 3/4" with viii and 313 pages and a black and white frontispiece photograph of Winston Churchill.
The case of the book is in very good condition with some shelf wear on the boards and light bumping to the bottom of the spine.
The contents are tight and clean with some scattered light foxing. There is heavier foxing on the fore edge of the text block and on some pages this has seeped a little way into the fore edge. There is a blind stamped address on the half-title page and front free endpaper and a name has been written on the front free endpaper.
There is no dustwrapper.
I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING BOOKS ON MANY SUBJECTS FOR MANY YEARS BUT LACK OF SPACE MEANS THAT I HAVE HAD TO PART WITH A LARGE NUMBER. I AM OVER HALF WAY THROUGH THE COLLECTION BUT HOPE TO BE LISTING BOOKS SIMILAR TO THIS ONE OVER THE COMING MONTHS.
