A tale of ARTHUR and GUINEVERE,of MERLIN and NIMUE and of Britain in her darkest age: 480 AD.1st editions are hard to find,due to a very low print run and then the quick,follow-up publication of the paperback,which went on to sell better than the 1st edn HB's,causing the subsequent reprint HB's to be remaindered,here in the UK.So,true 1st edns are very,very scarce.
