NY, Rinehart, (1948). His first book, one of the great novels of World War II, and one of the top hundred classics of the last century. Signed by the author. Fine in a fine dust jacket: a beautiful, crisp copy, with virtually none of the rubbing to the bottom edge of the boards that typically afflicts this title, in a beautiful, crisp dust jacket, with no rubbing to the black areas and with the spine completely unfaded and unrubbed, and with the white letters on the spine astonishingly still white. A stunning copy. Burgess 99. From the collection of Bruce Kahn. [#911065] SOLD
