About This Item
New York: Horace Liveright, Inc.. Very Good+ in Good+ dj. 1930. First Edition. Hardcover. [book itself is solid with minimal shelfwear, very light dust-darkening to top edge; jacket looks pretty good, but the spine has a little paper loss at the top and is actually in three pieces (separated by two lateral tears, held together by a couple of tiny pieces of tape, internally applied), and also has a 2-inch split at bottom front hinge; all holding together very well in its jacket protector, however]. A novel about female soldiers in World War I. "This Signal Corps of American girls fought side by side with men in the trenches, lived as men in the mud and the vermin and the ribaldry of war." (Were there such creatures, or this a mythical story?) .
