First edition copy of Signal – Close Action! by Alexander Kent, published by Hutchinson in 1974. This is the seventh book in the Richard Bolitho naval fiction series, set during the Napoleonic Wars. Includes original dust jacket (heavily worn) and illustrated map endpapers showing the Mediterranean theatre.
Hardback in very good condition with clean pages and a strong spine. Dust jacket is worn with tears, scuffs and loss to top and bottom edges but still presentable in a protective cover.
A classic piece of historical naval fiction ideal for collectors of maritime literature or fans of the Bolitho series.
