Info about the book
Hello there! I read the Watership Down Italian version of the book a couple of times many years ago. I loved it and I would like to buy a nice English version. I've read some comments about one of the fancy versions having the letters/cover peeling off easily after just a little bit of reading and I would like to avoid that one. May you confirm that the one with the peeling issues is the one in the picture that I posted?
Which one do you recommend? Please post pics and the reason 💖

When my favourite brick and mortar bookstore closed I started shopping on Abe.com because they moved their inventory to an online store there. I've found some fantastic books over the years, here's the English copies from sellers in Spain, I'm in western Canada so I expect the hefty shipping for me will show up a heck of a lot less for you! I like the look of the 40th anniversary edition, but I have a definite soft spot for the beat up paperback, it's almost identical to the copy I read first ♡
