About This Item
New York: Coward McCann, 1945. First Edition. First Edition. INSCRIBED by the author in the year of publication on the front endpaper: "For Hugh Bullock / Cordially / MacKinlay Kantor / December 12, 1945."
An epic poem, deemed nearly unpublishable at the time of its release, which became the basis for the classic 1946 film "The Best Years of Our Lives," directed by William Wyler and starring Fredric March, Myrna Loy, Dana Andrews, and Teresa Wright.
Near Fine in a Very Good plus dust jacket. Bottom board edges faintly rubbed. Jacket spine panel titles faded (as almost always found), with white portion lightly toned, with a couple of short closed tears on the spine ends and top edge of the rear panel.
