A Separate Peace
by Knowles, John
New York: Macmillan, 1960 Small octavo, 237pp. First US edition -- Knowles was living in England at the time of publication -- of the author's first book. A fixture on high-school reading lists. Signed by Knowles. Spine a bit faded, else a near fine copy in a fine example of the rare first issue pictorial dust jacket, with the second, printed, issue dust jacket covering that one. The printed jacket is a little foxed and edge-worn, but still very good. Copies in the two jackets have become rare. More so than even the UK edition. The first issue dust jacket, which Knowles asked to have altered as he felt that it tended to suggest a work for young readers rather than the serious novel that it is, is truly fine. The present copy is signed by Knowles, and most uncommon thus. . Signed by Author. First American Edition. Cloth. Near Fine-/Fine. Small 8 vo..
