Condición: GOOD. First printing. The first novel by this Trinidian-born African American. "Set in Trinidad, the novel brutally satirized the island's racial caste system and the entire social hierarchy the British had put in place. A Guardian review noted that Hercules 'animates an absurd milieu where skin color, hair texture, ethnic features, business acumen, respectability, and sometimes intelligence have to be carefully weighed before an individual can be given a social acceptability rating.' Named one of the five best first novels of the year by Newsweek magazine." (James M. Manheim) 212 pp. Ex-library with the usual markings, but overall tight and clean in a very good unmarked dust jacket (sunning to spine of dj, original price of $3.95 still present.).

John Norman Stuart, 'Johnnie', Buchan was the eldest son of the writer John Buchan, and succeeded to his father's title as the 2nd Baron Tweedsmuir. Johnnie followed a similar career to his father as a colonial civil servant and author, although in less resounding positions (his father was Governor General of Canada) and with smaller book sales. He also contributed to, and appeared as a character in, one or two of his father's later books. Tweedsmuir, as a member of the House of Lords, and his wife Priscilla, an MP in the Commons, were the driving force behind the Protection of Birds Act, 1954, and saw it through parliament between them. After Lord Tweedsmuir's death, the title passed to his younger brother, author and sometime London editor of Reader's Digest, William De l'Aigle Buchan. "Twenty years ago I married and made a home in Scotland after a generation's absence. We settled down in Aberdeenshire, where my wife, and her forbears, had always lived. We spent our first four years in a little castle among the high mountains, and the next sixteen years within sight and sound of the northern sea."
