Death in a Lonely Land Uncorrected Proof by Peter Hathaway Capstick (Signed)

A scarce Uncorrected Page Proof (Advance Review Copy) of Death in a Lonely Land by renowned safari writer Peter Hathaway Capstick.

Advance proof copies were printed in limited quantities prior to official publication and distributed to reviewers and publishing staff. Because of their small print runs they are typically far scarcer than standard first editions and are highly sought after by collectors of modern hunting and safari literature.

This copy of Death in a Lonely Land is signed and warmly inscribed by Capstick on the title page, dated 6 December 1989, with a humorous reference to shared safari experiences in Botswana, adding notable collector interest.

In Death in a Lonely Land, Capstick presents another gripping collection of outdoor adventures ranging from African dangerous game hunting to fishing and shooting stories from across the world. Written with Capstick's trademark humour and vivid storytelling, the book remains a classic of modern safari literature.

Illustrations in the finished edition were produced by wildlife artist Dino Paravano.

Condition - Very Good

Uncorrected Page Proof in original publisher's blue wrappers. The covers show moderate handling wear with light marks and some rubbing visible on the spine. Internally the pages are clean and sound.

The title page bears a lengthy inscription and signature by Peter Hathaway Capstick dated 6 December 1989.
