First edition. Inscribed by the author. Hardcover. Original oat-meal coloured cloth, spine lettered in red, front cover lettered and illustrated (a sword/dagger) within a red & white recessed label. Lacks dustjacket. A bookseller's tiny label on the back fixed endpaper (most likely the original seller, from W.H. Smith in Paris), some light soiling to the cloth, otherwise very good in an added clear archival jacket for this copy. The third installment of O'Flaherty's "flamboyant and inventive memoirs of this restless life" (the others two being "Two Years" (1930) and "I Went to Russia" (1931)). This copy is inscribed on the first blank "For Martin / Liam".

Octavo. 285 pp. First Edition, limited to 105 signed copies, this being #3 and signed by O'Flaherty beneath the limitation statement. Bound in red buckram with fading at the spine and some toning to the perimeters of the boards; intense offsetting to the first and last leaf--one of these leaves is the recto of the leaf, the verso of which contains the limitation statement and O'Flaherty's signature. Contents are clean. Lacking the publisher issued dust jacket. Quite an uncommon signed edition of this memoir by the Irish novelist.
