About This Item
New York, NY Harcourt, Brace & Co: Harvest/HBJ Books, 1981. Paperback Book-Club Edition [1981]. Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: just a hint of wear to extremities, with a mild bump to the bottom of the front hinge; else only the faintest sunning to the rust-red background field of the backstrip (the titles thereon remain bold and clearly legible). Binding square and secure; text clean. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 352 pages. Edited and with an Introduction by Fredson Bowers. Apparent Book Club Edition, published in 1981, a year before the Mariner paperback edition was published. Has no price on the cover; otherwise doesn't show any of the other indications of a Book-Club edition and there is no statement to that effect. Paperback.
