hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Clipped: poor. Fifth Edition. 253 p., clean and unmarked within; no marking on end pages but paper is not as fine and it is age-toned; wonderful photo portraits of each author, though there is some foxing in borders; binding firm; unfaded dark blue boards with still clear gilt lettering has light bumping of corners and slight rrubbing at crown and foot of spine, and along lower edge of rear panel--but in general has been well protected by a clipped d.j. that has suffered chipping along edges with open and closed tears, smudging, and in general great indignity. Fine stories with fascinating commentary by unjustly neglected authors.
