About This Item
New York, N.Y.: Harper Collins Publishers, 2003. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. A very nice first edition, first print copy inscribed to "Curtis" and signed by the author on the title page. First of three books in the Baroque Cycle. Book is in near fine condition. The very good dust jacket has some sticker residue on the front which could be cleaned. I will leave it to the new owner and protect the jacket with a new Brodart cover. A weighty tome, some light rubbing appears on the tail and corners, which are sharp.
