Author: Dick Francis
Title: Collection of Six Dick Francis Novels
Description: London, Michael Joseph, 1980 - 1986. First edition. Cloth. A collection of six UK first edition Dick Francis novels, including 'Reflex', 'Twice Shy', 'Banker', 'The Danger', 'Proof' and 'Bolt&apos. In keeping with Francis' career as a steeplechase jockey, the books here, although based in the crime genre, often incorporated the horse racing industry, with outwardly respectable figures often being exposed as criminals in stories narrated by jockeys, bookies and other professions linked at least peripherally to racing. A hugely prolific writer, Francis' began his writing career in the late 1950s, with the novels here representing something of a middle-period. In cloth bindings with gilt detailing and original unclipped dustwrappers. Externally smart, there are some markings to the boards as well as very minor rubbing and bumping to extremities. The dustwrappers have some shelfwear and very light markings to panels. Internally, the pages are firmly bound and are bright and clean throughout, aside from the usual light foxing to endpages. Near Fine . Ill.: None. Near Fine/Near Fine.
