1979. 1979 Reprint.. 86 pages. No dust jacket. Blue cloth with gilt lettering. Pages are lightly tanned at the edges, with light foxing. Binding has remained firm. Boards have slight shelf with bumping to corners. Spine ends are a little crushed with light tanning.
Excellent yarn made more meaningful because I live in area where events took place and frequently walk dog there. Story well told and use in places of Ulster Scots adds to it. Suspension well held up through the telling. Strongly recommend it.
