About This Item
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1952. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. Signed, inscribed and dated on the page opposite the half title page by the author as follows: "To/Mrs Edwards/who also had the/temerity to finish/a book.Burton Harris/" "/ Jan.21-1956/" There are two words above the date that I cannot make out what is being conveyed. Volume itself has tan ccovers with sharp silber lettering on the spine. 180 pages, including an index and a bibliography. There is some light bumping at the base of the spine and at some corners. Dust jacket is protected in an archival quality cover. Dj is not price-clipped! Wear and chipping at head and tail of the spine and on some edges and corners. However, dj looks rather nice in its protective cover. Available for immediate shipment, carefully packed in a sturdy box.
