About This Item
New York: Random House, 1951. First Edition. First printing Near fine with a hardly noticable 1/2 inch dampstain on the upper edge of the spine and edge of the front board & prior owner's stamp on FEP. In a very good+ dust jacket lightly worn and flecked at the base of the spine area and corners of the panels rubbed and flecked. This is the first state of the first edition which can be identified by mention of the play South Pacific on the rear flap of the dust jacket. All other states fail to mention this famous musical adaptation of Michener's earlier work.
