1949ref. B572London: Faber and Faber 1949. First. Hardcover. Near fine/Good minus. Time of Hope is the third novel in C. P. Snow's monumental Strangers and Brothers series but first in the series' narrative chronology. It depicts the beginning of Lewis Eliot's life with a childhood in poverty in a small English town at the beginning of the 20th century. Very good in orange cloth with gilt titles on the spine. The gilt has some fading. The binding is sound but the book leans a bit. The corners are bent and so have compressed the corners of the text as well. The rear cover is dented at the lower spine corner. The unclipped DJ appears from the quality of the paper to be a facsimile and shows just a bit of edge wear. Snow has inscribed the book on the title page. FO. Faber and Faber hardcover
