New York: Random House. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1985. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Coming from the personal library of Ed Abbey is an association copy of Cormac McCarthy's "Blood Meridian"; inscribed by McCarthy to Ed Abbey, "For Ed With all best wishes Your friend Cormac." A very good copy with original dust jacket and red, half cloth binding. Dust jacket has a quarter inch tear at the top of the spine and light toning to inside flaps; boards have light sunning and foxing to top edge, and light wear to bottom, right corner; rear pastedown has three leaves pasted to back board; text block is clean and binding is tight. Research and experience handling McCarthy's works reveals that he rarely inscribed books, this inscribed copy being very rare. The inscription shows a level of familiarity, and the special collections department at the University of Arizona possesses 8 pages of correspondence between McCarthy and Abbey dating from 1986 and 1988. Copies of this correspondence will be included. One letter from McCarthy to Abbey describes how McCarthy got "boxed out" while hiking the Big Bend near Moab, and after retracing his steps and reaching his car at 2 in the morning, "Drank some water and ate something and opened the book [he] was reading - Desert Solitaire - and read the next chapter." The next chapter refers to the one where Ed has the same hiking experience, and McCarthy writes that if he had read the chapter a day sooner, he would have been spared the trouble. This association between two of the most influential writers of the 20th and 21st centuries is remarkable. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 337 pp; Signed by Author .

Description:
An epic novel of the violence and depravity that attended America's westward expansion, Blood Meridian brilliantly subverts the conventions of the Western novel and the mythology of the "wild west." Based on historical events that took place on the Texas-Mexico border in the 1850s, it traces the fortunes of the Kid, a fourteen-year-old Tennesseean who stumbles into the nightmarish world where Indians are being murdered and the market for their scalps is thriving.
