Original tan cloth, designed and lettered in red and black. Frontispiece and seven inserted plates. Notes on the front flyleaf by a prior owner, also a page of holograph notes pasted in at page 154. One marginal tear at page 233, small mark to binding along front hinge, a very good copy. Laid in is a letter from The War Office Library dated 1960, returning the book to its owner; also laid in are several black & white snapshots of Morant's grave, which look to be from the 1960s, and a relevant newspaper clipping. This book is an account of the 1902 court martial of lieutenants Harry Morant, Peter Handcock and George Witton, for war crimes. The book was the basis of the 1980 film Breaker Morant. A very scarce book in the original edition, which was rumoured to have been suppressed and destroyed.
