Stated First Edition; A Very Good book in a Very Good dust jacket. A remarkably well preserved copy of this novel, "a profound and witty comment on the ways of Gods and men"; uncommon in the first edition, scarce in this condition. This copy is in very good condition with some mild sunning to the board edges and moderate fading to the spine lettering, else near fine or better. Housed in a clean and crisp dust jacket that shows minor rubbing and chipping to the spine ends, edges, and corners, moderate age-toning to the flap edges and verso of the jacket, and a faint dampstain to the back panel with some associated age-spots. Overall, a sharp and fresh copy. (truncated)
