Sharpe's Eagle, Bernard Cornwell, Collins, 1981, First Edition, First Impression Adapted into a TV series starring Sean Bean as Sharp, this is the eighth book in the series chronological order. The story is set in July 1809 in the midst of the Talavera Campaign during the Peninsular War. In near fine condition, the binding is straight and tight, the boards clean and the lettering on the spine bright. It appears the front end papers have been replaced but given the excellent condition more likely to be due to an ownership marking more so than that of a library. The end papers and pages are free from tears and inscriptions. There are marks to the edge of the front end paper and faint marks to the bottom edge. The clipped dust jacket, protected in a clear, removable cover is in fine condition with no issues. Will be dispatched carefully wrapped in bubblewrap and a cardboard box.
