What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

In 1936 Stephen Faith, a young student, goes to Spain to teach English to Pablo, the seventeen-year-old son of the Mayor of Zahara de los Membrillos, and he finds himself falling in love with his pupil's older brother. The beginning of the Spanish Civil War, however, interrupts this idyllic period in his life; Pablo is murdered and his brother, the leader of a group of daring Anarchists, inflicts a horrible revenge. Increasingly, Stephen becomes involved in events outside his control as Zahara is besieged by the Fascists; on the wrong side of the lines eventually, he is deserted by his lover, tortured and sentenced to death. His escape from prison is the exciting climax to this immensely readable, fast-moving story of love, war, betrayal, and murder.
