Please view our photographs for this well kept 1st edition copy of Truth Will Out by Charlotte Haldane, published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson in 1949. This book is a notable biographical account detailing her experiences with and ultimate disillusionment from the Communist Party.

The current estimated market value of a 1st edition copy of Truth Will Out by Charlotte Haldane (1949) in Good condition is roughly £21 GBP.

Because this is a niche mid-century memoir rather than a highly sought-after work of fiction, its value is stable but modest.

Factors Influencing the Value

• The Dust Jacket: For books from this era, the dust jacket typically accounts for 60% of the total value. This copy is missing its original dust jacket, hence 
• Condition Grading: A “Good” rating in antiquarian book terms means the book is complete and perfectly readable, but shows clear signs of wear. This might include edge wear to the boards, some spine fading, a slightly loose binding, or foxing (brown age spots) on the pages.
• Historical Context: While it is a historically significant book—being one of the earliest titles published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson and an important early piece of anti-communist literature—it does not have a massive pool of active collectors compared to works by her contemporary peers.
