Fighting Terms
Thom Gunn · Fantasy Press, Oxford · 1954
No book-club issue documented. Because no jacket was issued, jacket-based tells do not apply. The common trap is the revised 1958 Hawk's Well Press wrappers issue, or the 1962 Faber edition, offered as a 'first edition' of Fighting Terms — both are later, revised texts. A copy reading 'thought' on p. 38 is the second state of the first edition, not a reprint.
