New York: Villard Books. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1992. Hardcover. 0679414142 . Hardback in d/w; US edition; I am confused as to whether this is a true 1st edition or a 2nd impression; in the publishing details it is printed 1st edition, but in the number line above the numbers do not include the number 1, they start at 2, and normally the number one would be included If it was a true 1st printing. However this publisher, who I am unfamiliar with, may substitute the number 1 with printing 1st edition. It is clear that the previous seller of this book thought it was a first edition, as they have written '1st' inside. I am just unfamiliar with US 1st editions!
