Notes
A fine copy of the rarest of the Treanor trilogy on the Goodwins and the Life-boatmen
'The Heroes of the Goodwin Sands' and 'The Log of a Sky Pilot' were much reprinted whereas this seems to have been the only edition of this title. This copy is a slight binding variation on others we have handled, the background cloth is a darker blue and the title lettering on the upper board is in yellow and red as opposed to gilt and red. The authors name on the upper board is in black instead of gilt as it is on the spine and the publishers device is also black. These variations are just that, there is no precedent known.
