Death at the President's Lodging.
Book Description
Dealer Notes
An unusually good example of the first novel by retired Oxford don J.I.M. Stewart writing as Michael Innes, introducing crime fans to his most famous detective creation, Sir John Appleby. As a prior professor of English, Stewart’s novels are often possessed of an erudition and sagacity that make them stand out from their contemporaries.
A known scarcity in the original dust-jacket, especially in such condition, and a key work in any detective fiction collector’s library.
