What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Proof Copy, Publishers' Original Binding, Scarce, With Dustwrapper

A publisher's review copy of the scarce first US edition of this work, first printing, in the publisher's original unclipped dust wrapper.

With a loosely inserted slip reading 'A Review Copy with the Compliments of Philomel Books'.

The first novel in Brian Jacques's twenty-two novel series about the anthropomorphic animals inhabiting Redwall Abbey and the surrounding countryside of Mossflower Wood, including mice, moles, hares, badgers, and other woodland species.

The books of the Redwall series have drawn comparisons to J. R. R. Tolkien's 'The Lord of the Rings', to Kenneth Grahame's 'The Wind in the Willows', and Richard Adams's 'Watership Down'.
