| Notes: Landmark Hardback Pictorial Cover Book is in Very Good Plus condition with a tight binding and clean crisp pages. Inside text is in Excellent condition and appears to be unread! The only marking in the book is a stamp from "The Colonial Press" stating that this is an "imperfect or over-stocked book". It appears to be "over-stocked" as I checked each page and the book appears to be Unread. No other markings or writing in the book. Outside pictorial covers are very nice with some minor corner wear and a very small tear at the top of the outside spine. No Dust Jacket, as this is the pictorial cover. Book has come from a private collection. Landmark Books and World Landmark Books are accurate, in-depth stories for young people in the 9-15 year old range. These living histories were written by award-winning authors or by men and women who experienced the events first hand. Written during the 1950's and 1960's and illustrated either with two-color drawings or clear photographs, the books are informative, enjoyable, and well worth reading and collecting. The Story of the Secret Service Landmark Book #75. In this book, Kuhn presents not only the story of the origin of the Secret Service and an account of what it does, but an exciting collection of actual case histories taken from Secret Service files. |
