Details
Live and Let Die
Ian Fleming, 1954
FLEMING, Ian (1908-1964). Live and Let Die. London: Jonathan Cape, 1954.
First edition in a first state, unrestored dust jacket. This first state jacket bears no printed credit for its design. Ian Fleming's second James Bond novel was well received and met with good reviews. A critic for The Times Literary Supplement wrote: "Mr. Ian Fleming is without doubt the most interesting recent recruit among thriller writers. The second adventure of his Secret Service agent ... contains passages which for sheer excitement have not been surpassed by any modern writer in this kind."
Octavo. Original black cloth stamped in gilt (few pale spots to endleaves and half-title, a crease to a few interior leaves); dust jacket (some pale browning, light wear at folds and spine panel ends).
