<p>Some chipping to dust jacket on the top rear edge, as well as visible, closed tears on fron bottom edge, front left corner, and back left corner. Otherwise very nice copy.</p>

<p>Dust jacket notes: "The peaceful life of the residents of the Ford was threatened by unaccustomed violence, but until one rainy day when Lynch arrived the villagers were content to set new strict boundaries and keep to themselves. Lynch's nonchalant attitude made such carefulness seem silly. And so, even though McCragan and the narrator know they aren't supposed to go below the sand bar on the River, it doesn't seem to be a serious offense when Lynch is around. What begins as a lighthearted adventure ends dramatically as the three friends witness a secret meeting between a mysterious masked Baron and the evil, social-climbing Sour Kraut. Suddenly the three are pitched into the middle of blackmail, the unsolved theft of the Royal Crown of France, ad a daring plan to foil Sour Kraut's wickedness before he and his hunters overrun the Ford. Betsy James Wyeth has set her lively tale of bucolic innocence and derring-do in the town of Chadds Ford, and Jamie Wyeth, the youngest member of the Brandywine School, recalls its traditions in his elegant pen-and-ink drawings."</p>
