About This Item
New York: Dodd Mead, 1940. Exceedingly scarce first U.S. edition, the first edition with this title. Originally published in the UK with a racist term in the title. AND THEN THERE WERE NONE is the world's best-selling mystery and one of the best-selling books of all time. Adapted numerous times for film, radio, stage, and television. Good to very good with some tanning to upper and lower spine areas; in fair to good price-clipped dust jacket with portions of upper and lower spine missing, few areas of internal archival-tape repair, and rubbed creasing to front panel. Scarce to rare in dust jacket.
Synopsis

During the novel, ten people, who previously committed murder but escaped due to technicalities, are tricked into coming onto an island.
