About This Item
Portland, Oregon: Self-Published, 1928. FIRST EDITION. Hardcover. VERY GOOD. 450 pages 8vo, navy cloth, paper printed spine label.
SIGNED by author on first page with an inscription.
An extremely hard book to find in any condition as the project was funded by McArthur himself and it was a self published small run.
Some light rubbing to extremities, the interir gutter is cracked but complete and some light loss to cloth on the edges. Printed and bound by Koke-Chapman company in Eugene.
A clean copy with a crisp signature. VERY GOOD
