Frank Herbert - The Santagora Barrier - Rapp & Whiting, 1968, First Edition.

London, Rapp & Whiting, 1968. First edition, first impression. Hardback. A near fine copy. The first hardback edition, preceded by a US PBO and an Amazing Stories publication. An 'alternative culture' novel. A few indentations to the jacket and some foxing to the top edge. Frank Herbert (1920-1986) is best-known of course for Dune and its sequels, which carry a good deal of world-building depth and is one of the true classics of the genre. This is one a dozen of so lesser-known novels. [12337, Hyraxia Books].
