And like Hal Smith in his 1943 book "On the Gathering of a Library," we "confess an affection for the presentation copy. The author had it in his hand. He turned its pages. He wrote in it his message of friendship or affection. Such a book is somehow consecrated. It has received an accolade and has been raised to the nobility (57)." A few scuffs and shelf rubs.

Description:
More than Mercer House: Savannah's Jim Williams & his Southern Houses written and signed by Dorothy Kingery, the hardcover book is like new except at the last page the sewn in bindings comes a little away from the book just for about 1/3 of the way up, no pages are loose and it's the very end of the book, the buckram black cover is beautiful; the dj has edge and cover wear to the front, but still looks good in the sense that you can still see the cover and back photographs very well.
