Notes Leather, no jacket (as issued). A very rare book - the "Limited de Luxe Edition is published by special arrangement with Messrs. Hollis & Carter, Ltd., and appears simultaneously with their first edition." 120 copies of the deluxe edition were printed (of which 50 copies were for Book Club members only) plus an additional 5 copies , numbered I to V , were struck off as presentation and reference copies. This is one of those presentation copies (number IV). It could be argued that this is the rarest Merton publications with only 5 copies printed in total.
