HOAGLAND, Edward
The Circle Home
NY, Thomas Y. Crowell, (1960). A specially-bound author's copy of Hoagland's second book, a novel. Three quarter leather, raised bands, gilt stamped, marbled endpapers. Probably a unique copy made for Hoagland by the publisher, or one of a couple of copies created by the publisher for the author and publisher -- a somewhat widespread tradition in American publishing in that era. Front cover fully detached, and in need of repair to be functional; leather somewhat mottled. A 1964 newspaper clipping about the 31-year-old Hoagland receiving two literary grants is laid in. From the author's library.
