First Edition
Wraps. Condition: About Fine. Advance Reading Copy-Not for Sale. 573pp. 19cm. 12mo. Softcover. Perfectbound. Glossy green illustrated wraps. Book Condition: About fine, with faint signs of handling, mild crease to front panel. As "ADVANCE READING COPY-NOT FOR SALE" (all caps theirs) this edition precedes first trade edition and is absolutely less common, issued in far smaller numbers. Front cover closely resembles that of first trade edition, though the dimensions are slightly smaller (19 cm vs. 20 cm height.), but the spine is completely devoid of lettering, as is the rear panel (except for the declaration referenced above), distinguishing it from the first softcover printing. A sharp copy of a scarce edition.
