The Plague Dogs - first US edition

by Richard Adams

Absorbing tale as seen through the eyes of two dogs, Snitter and Rowf, who escape from an animal experimentation laboratory in the English Lake District. Debilitated from being used as test subjects, the two runaways are scarcely prepared for survival in the bleak landscape of crags and fells to which they have fled. Grippingly told by the author of "Watership Downs".

Book is mustard-green cloth with gold stamped lettering on spine and front board. Boards are sunned, previous owner name and purchase date inside front end paper, spine slightly bent. Jacket has closed tears, some rubbing, but no missing pieces.
