Original blue cloth with gilt lettering on spine only. DJ has three small missing portions at bottom and taped repairs inside(See scan). Still very good, with P.O.N. the only book fault. "What kind of life are the men in the Navy leading? For just a brief space it lifts the curtain upon life on the lower deck as seen by a raw recruit, and against the dramatic background of the war 'Tackline' shows the human scene which unfolds itself from day to day." - DJ. 203 pp.
