About This Item
New York & Toronto: Farrar & Rinehart, 1938. First American Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Poor. This is a first edition, with the publisher's F&R logo on the verso of the title page. The interior of the book is clean and tight, with darkening of the fixed and free end papers and the edges of the text block. The beige cloth covers are clean, with light wear overall, but heavier wear and fraying to the top and bottom of the spine area. Sadly, the dust jacket is in poor condition, with heavy wear and nicks of paper missing from the top and bottom of the spine. The attached scan should give a better idea of condition. The jacket is now in a protective mylar cover.
