Hardcover. Condición: Very Good+. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good dj. Illustrated by (dj design) Brian Paine Ilustrador. First Edition. [modest bumping to upper corners but no other significant wear, agency stamp on front endpaper; the jacket is lightly soiled, with a few nicks along the edges, a couple of short closed tears, and a small triangular surface-wound to the rear panel (slightly affecting the text thereon); the lower corner of the front jacket flap is clipped (possibly where a British price appears) but the original printed American price of $2.95 remains at the upper corner]. Hard-boiled mystery novel with a Florida setting, about an embittered ex-World War II-era pilot who's "drinking his way quietly into oblivion at a jerkwater Florida airport" a dozen years after the war, and gets involved in a bank robbery scheme that might require him "to kill -- and kill ruthlessly -- if something went wrong." This was one of just a handful of hardcover novels by Whittington (most issued by this same publisher), who cranked out dozens of paperback originals during the 1950s and 1960s, under both his own name and an array of pseudonyms. (Which also means it's one of the few times when an actual photo of the author was published in one of his books -- such niceties not typically being part of the trashy-paperback publishing scheme.).

Some edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, some yellowing to extremities and spine, not price clipped (£2.20), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 210pp. The third book by Swiss author and charlatan Erich von Daniken on the evidence for the influence of ancient alien visitors on human civilisation. In 'The Gold of the Gods', Daniken wrote of being guided through artificial tunnels in a cave under Ecuador, Cueva de los Tayos, containing gold, strange statues and a library with metal tablets, which he considered to be evidence of ancient space visitors. The man who he said showed him these tunnels, Juan Moricz, told 'Der Spiegel' that Daniken's descriptions came from a long conversation and that the photos in the book had been fiddled. Daniken told Playboy that although he had seen the library and other places he had described, he had fabricated some of the events to add interest to his book. Later in 1978 he said that he had never been in the cave pictured in his book but in a 'side entrance', and that he had fabricated the whole descent into the cave. A geologist examined the area and found no cave systems. Daniken also wrote about a collection of gold objects held by local priest Father Crespi, who had special permission from the Vatican to do archaeological research, but an archeologist reported to 'Der Spiegel' that, while there were some gold pieces, many were just local imitations for tourists, and that Crespi has difficulty distinguishing brass from gold.
