First published by Jonathan Cape, August 1934, this is the fifth impression, September 1934, hardcover, no jacket. The boards are worn in places, and are warped. The front pastedown and first end paper have the names of two previous owners in pen, and a gift inscription written on them. The edge of the front fold-out map stands slightly proud of the pages, and the edge is therefore a bit worn and torn. The pages are lightly shelf soiled, and the photographic plate between pages 288 and 289 has a small tear and liquid stain on it, but are otherwise clean and undamaged. From Wikipedia:
One's Company: A Journey to China, (London: Cape, 1934), is a travel book by Peter Fleming, correspondent for The Times of London, describing his journey day-by-day from London through Moscow and the Trans-Siberian Railway, then through Japanese-run Manchukuo, then on to Nanking, the capital of China in the 1930s, with a glimpse of Red China. It was reissued (with News from Tartary) as half of Travels in Tartary.
