New York: Simon and Schuster, 1960. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/Good-. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. See photos for condition details. Hardcover with dust jacket. Original price of $3.95 is still present on the front flap. DJ shows quite a bit of edge wear and chipping, chipping to the spine edges being the worst.
