About This Item
Near Fine, unread book, with slight soiling page edges; in a Near Fine jacket with light edge and corner wear, touch of soiling, tiny closed tear at top of front flap fold, mild sun fade to spine. This copy has been signed by Hillerman on the title page. This is the correct, SECOND state of the book and jacket as verified by the book's designer and illustrator, Dan Stouffer, who worked at the Press. This correct, second state jacket has ONE photograph of Stouffer's drawing of Shiprock on the back panel and book and jacket are significantly different than the correct first states. The states of this book and jacket have been confused by booksellers for many years - see article Two States of Great in May-June 2015 issue of Firsts Magazine, or ask me questions about the issue.
