NY, Dial Press, 1976. The uncorrected proof copy of the autobiography of the author best known for his baseball novels, including Bang the Drum Slowly, which was filmed for television starring Paul Newman, Albert Salmi and George Peppard, and later as a movie starring Michael Moriarty and Robert De Niro. A fragile, padbound proof. Creasing and stain to upper corner and foredge; a very good copy. Uncommon. [#035978] $200
