Scribner. ** 1ST EDITION, 1ST PRINTING ** SCARCE ** FINE HARDCOVER BOOK ** NEAR FINE DUSTJACKET ** NOT A LIBRARY BOOK ** CLEAN, STAIN-FREE, UNMARKED ** Published by Scribner in 2002, 8vo, with 219 pages. The noted author's first book. Book was purchased new by original owner, placed on a shelf for over 20 years and never read. The book itself has micro signs of shelf use at the top and bottom of the spine only, is otherwise As New and just as it came from the publisher. The dustjacket shows a bit of wear right at and near the top corner of the rear panel (short diagonal soft crease and very short micro tear at the tip). The book is quite clean and stain-free, square and straight, very firm and tight in its binding, no pages are loose, torn, or missing. The corners have not been bumped. All pages are clean and stain-free, and all text is crisp and legible. There is no writing, underlining, highlighting, or any other such markings in the book. The dustjacket is perfectly clean, stain-free, and complete, NOT price-clipped, absolutely no wear or signs of use aside from the aforementioned. Copies of the 1st Printing are becoming increasingly hard to find in any condition. Five-star seller, buy with confidence, professional booksellers for 35 years, selling books online since 1995. B34. . Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 2002.
