1981rif. 002968Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company 1981. First edition. Hardcover. This is the U.S. first edition of Companion Volume V Part 2 of the Official Biography of Sir Winston Churchill. The Official Biography of Winston Churchill initiated by Randolph Churchill but completed by Martin Gilbert is an epic piece of scholarship about a singularly epic life comprising eight mammoth main text volumes and - so far - seventeen accompanying document or "Companion" volumes. The eight main text volumes were originally published between 1966 and 1988. Publication of the Companion volumes was completed in 2019. The Companion volumes for Volume V of the Official Biography are perhaps the most keenly sought and most prohibitive to acquire of all Official Biography volumes. The British and U.S. first editions saw just a single printing and the Volume V Companions were published in smaller quantities than other Companion volumes - meaning that many first edition Official Biography sets will forever do without. The British first editions were bound in solid red cloth. The U.S. editions were published using British sheets but more elaborately bound with tan linen spines over blue buckram boards with blue spine title panels printed in red and gilt. The bindings also feature head and foot bands and vertical red transition rules between the tan linen and blue buckram. This U.S. first edition of Companion Volume V Part 2 is in near fine condition in a very good dust jacket. The binding is immaculate - clean tight and square with no discernible wear. The only flaws we find are a trivial wrinkle to the binding cloth at the head of the front hinge - perhaps a binding flaw perhaps a tiny bump. The contents are bright and crisp the volume clearly unread. We find no spotting and no previous ownership marks. We note a light .75 inch pen mark at the top edge near the spine clearly a stray pen rather than a remainder mark. The dust jacket is bright and complete with no losses and retaining the original front flap price. There is some incidental soiling at the hinges flap folds and upper rear face modest wrinkling to the bottom edge at the spine and front face and .25 inch closed tears at the spine ends and bottom edge of the front face. The dust jacket is protected in a removable archival quality clear cover. Please note that this large heavy book may require additional postage. Reference: Zoller A302e2.

1982rif. 002966London: William Heinemann Ltd. 1982. First edition. Hardcover. This is the British first edition of Companion Volume V Part 3 of the Official Biography of Sir Winston Churchill. The Official Biography of Winston Churchill initiated by Randolph Churchill but completed by Martin Gilbert is an epic piece of scholarship about a singularly epic life comprising eight mammoth main text volumes and - so far - seventeen accompanying document or "Companion" volumes. The eight main text volumes were originally published between 1966 and 1988. Publication of the Companion volumes was completed in 2019. This is the rarest most keenly sought and most prohibitive to acquire of the Official Biography Companion volumes. The British first edition saw just a single printing in England and the Volume V Companions were published in smaller quantities than other Companion volumes - meaning that many British first edition Official Biography sets will forever do without. The third is the rarest of the three Volume V Companions. Here is the British first edition only printing a near fine example in a very good dust jacket. The red cloth binding is square clean and tight with sharp corners bright spine gilt and no concavity to the massive spine. We note light shelf wear to the bottom edge and a hint of wrinkling at the spine ends. The contents are clean and bright with no spotting and no previous ownership marks. The red-stained top edge retains deep unfaded color. The dust jacket is clean bright and complete with no tears or losses and still retains the original front flap price. What prevents our grading the dust jacket higher than "very good" is wrinkling and light creasing to the spine. Note that this wrinkling is barely discernible beneath the removable archival quality clear dust jacket protector. Please note that this large heavy book may require additional postage.
