First American Edition. SPECIAL ADVANCE COMPLIMENTARY EDITION. Though not called for, the author has SIGNED this copy on the front endpaper. Fine in the scarce prepublication white dj., with publicity information printed on front cover. Publisher's complimentary card laid-in. (A few spots of mild soiling on rear panel. The blank spine on the dj. is slightly age toned) We have seen only two other copies of this advance.
