Edition: Early Edition
Published By: Collins
St Mary's Books is proud to present this 1951 early edition of "The Labours of Hercules" by Agatha Christie. Housed in its original bright green dustjacket featuring a charming illustration of a dog on the cover, this hardback book is bound in bright blue buckram with gold gilt lettering. Inside, one finds 256 pages of short stories featuring Hercule Poirot. Planning to retire, Poirot resolves to tackle 12 final cases, each one chosen to allegorically mirror the 12 mythical trials of his classical namesake. This copy, and its original dustjacket are in good condition - though the gilt on the spine is worn, the pages have yellowed and there is some splitting at the hinges. "The Labours of Hercules" is looking for a new home and would make for the perfect gift for any mystery lover.
