hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition. Publication: Annapolis, Maryland, The Nautical & Aviation Publishing Company of America, 1983 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 270. Condition Report: Near Fine. The book is presented in a dust jacket that remains remarkably bright and sharp, showing only the most superficial signs of shelf-wear to the extremities. The original blue boards are exceptionally clean, the corners remain sharp and unbumped, and the gilt lettering to the spine is entirely unoxidized and brilliant. Internally, the binding is tight, square, and sound, feeling essentially unread. The text block is crisp and the pages are uniformly clean, exhibiting none of the foxing or significant toning often associated with publications of this vintage, save for the slightest hint of natural age-toning to the page edges. Catalogue Note: This is a handsome first edition of Barrett Tillman's authoritative history of the Grumman F4F Wildcat. Profusely illustrated with 113 black-and-white photographs printed on high-quality stock, the volume offers a comprehensive operational history of this pivotal fighter aircraft. As a standard trade edition, it does not feature secondary bindings or limitations, but it remains an excellent reference work for military aviation historians and enthusiasts. While the title is reasonably accessible on the open market, finding copies in such well-preserved, tight condition, retaining an unblemished and vibrant dust jacket, is becoming increasingly uncommon. From the desperate days of Pearl Harbor and Wake Island to the protracted struggle for Guadalcanal, the rugged Grumman F4F Wildcat held the line against the formidable Japanese Zero. In this definitive operational history, acclaimed aviation historian Barrett Tillman chronicles the exploits of the aircraft and the intrepid Navy and Marine Corps pilots who flew it. Detailing its development, combat record, and the crucial role it played during the early years of the Pacific War, along with its service as the Martlet in the Royal Navy, this meticulously researched volume is an essential tribute to one of the most significant carrier fighters of the Second World War.

hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Publication: Lymington, Nautical Publishing Company Limited in association with George G. Harrap & Company Limited, 1974 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 142. Condition Report: Very Good. This copy presents exceptionally well in its original, unclipped dust jacket, showing only minor signs of age. The light green cloth boards remain remarkably bright and completely square, with sharp corners, no evidence of shelf-wear, and brilliant, unoxidised silver stamping to the front board and spine. The binding is impressively tight and structurally pristine, suggesting the book has seen little, if any, reading. The primary reason this copy is graded as Very Good rather than Fine is the presence of moderate, scattered foxing; this spotting is confined largely to the text block edges, the front endpapers, and the preliminary pages (including the half-title, title, and copyright pages), while the central text block remains clean. The accompanying dust jacket is equally attractive, retaining its vibrant front panel illustration and original pricing, exhibiting only trivial edge-wear and a hint of very light creasing at the head of the spine. Catalogue Note: This copy is a true first edition, first printing. It is distinguished by a highly desirable piece of provenance: the author's signature on the title page. In his characteristic and well-documented style, Tilman has struck a firm pen line through his printed name and signed 'H. W. Tilman.' directly beneath it in dark ink. The volume is illustrated throughout with striking black-and-white photographs documenting the arduous voyages and formidable ice formations, supplemented by double-page map endpapers that trace the geographical breadth of the expeditions. Copies bearing Tilmanâs authentic strike-through signature are exceptionally scarce and highly prized by collectors of polar exploration and mountaineering history. In Ice With Everything, the indefatigable sailor and mountaineer H. W. 'Bill' Tilman recounts three distinct and dramatic voyages to the unforgiving Arctic waters off Greenland. Undertaken between 1971 and 1973, his first two expeditions aboard the Seabreeze were defined by relentless struggles against impenetrable sea ice, culminating in the crushing and tragic loss of the vessel. Refusing to yield to the Arctic's hostility, Tilman acquired the pilot cutter Baroque and returned the following year, facing gales, thick fog, and colossal icebergs. Told with his trademark dry wit, literary elegance, and stoic endurance, the book stands as a testament to the unyielding spirit of one of the twentieth century's greatest explorers.
