About This Item
This sequel to Mr. Blanding Builds his Dream House is full of "social satire" and humor as the protagonist's citified ways and advertising vocation come into contact and conflict with his new country neighbors. The binding is near flawless with just a few bumps to corners and spine ends. Dust jacket has some very minor bumping and creasing to spine ends and corners with a little rubbing and soiling. This is a Book-of-the-Month Club edition printed in the same year as the first edition.
All proceeds benefit The Friends of the San Anselmo Library. No Expedited Shipping outside of the United States.
