by Schumpeter, Joseph A.
New York: Harper & Brothers, 1942. First Edition. Near Fine/Near Fine. First edition, first printing. Bound in publisher's original black cloth with spine lettered in gilt. An unusually sharp copy, Near Fine, with light wear to cloth and gilt stamping, contents tanned. In a Near Fine unclipped dust jacket with light wear mostly along the extremities, light fading to the spine, light soiling to the rear panel. The author's best-known, important and perhaps most controversial work. Scarce in the original dust jacket and uncommon in such lovely condition.
