Early printing of the author’s sequel to the Booker Prize-winning novel Rites of Passage. Octavo, original cloth. Fine in a fine dust jacket.
To the Ends of the Earth, William Golding's great sea trilogy, presents the extraordinary story of a warship's troubled journey to Australia in the early 1800s. Told through the pages of Edmund Talbot's journal--with equal measure of wit and disdain--it records the mounting tensions and growing misfortunes aboard the ancient ship.
