INSCRIBED by James Jones to editor in chief at Esquire magazine, Harold Hayes, on the half-title page. "To Harold- a study of, & in, styles. Note the one beginning p25. Best James." Jones has placed an ink dash after the story "The Way It Is" on the table of contents page. Near fine in a Vg.+ dj. (Mild trace of foxing at top edge. Some short edge tears & shelf wear to dj. Spine on dj. lightly faded, but still perfectly readable) A nice association.
