London: Hodder and Stoughton, 1974. A first edition, first printing published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1974. A fine book with one neat name to the half-title - SIGNED without dedication to the title page by Le Carre. In a fine neatly clipped wrapper WITHOUT fading to the spine. One touch of rubbing to the top of the spine - certainly the best example we have ever handled.
