About This Item

New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1924. First American Edition. Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good +. 8vo, purple cloth with gold spine lettering, Mylar-protected pictorial dust jacket (unclipped) with depiction of a white monkey, [i-vi] + vi-viii + 328 pages. John Galsworthy OM (1867 - 1933) was a famous English novlist. The White Monkey is the first book in the second trilogy which comprises John Galsworthy"s Forsyte Saga; that is, this is the fourth book in the series, and the first in the Modern Comedy trilogy. The Forsyte Saga (1906-21) and its sequels are considered Galsworthy's masterwork(s). The author won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1932. NEAR FINE COPY overall: tight, clean, with minor flaws to cloth and the dust jacket, which is slightly soiled. Cloth has slight soil and lightly bumped corners. A few chips lost to upper and lower portions of dust jacket along the spine and light stains to rear panel.
