About This Item
New York: Simon and Schuster, 1982. First edition. Hardcover. A near fine copy in a near fine clean dust jacket with the lightest of sunning to spine. The hero of Cadillac Jack, the rodeo cowboy turned antique dealer whose vaguely gypsy life (the center of his life is his collector's classic Cadillac) links the worlds of Texas, the backroads of flea markets and small-time collectors and Washington social-politican highlife. He not only lives in two worlds, he is detached from both by a certain wry objectivety. Richly comic and profoundly moving. 395 pages.
