Hardcover. Condition: Fine condition. Dust Jacket Condition: No jacket, probably as issued. Fifth printing. New York: Pantheon Books, 1979. SIGNED by the AUTHOR on the half title: "With best wishes -- Robert Cormier." NOT inscribed to any specific person. Fine condition. Sharp corners. A bright, shiny, clean, square, tight copy. NOT a library discard. NO owner's name or bookplate. NO remainder mark. By the author of I AM THE CHEESE and THE CHOCOLATE WAR. This copy features the publisher's sturdy "Gibraltar Library Binding" (as in sturdy as the Rock-of-Gibraltar). However, this copy never went to a library. The binding is clothbound and beautifully illustrated in full-color (much more attractive than the trade hardcover which has cheap, plain paper-covered boards that are not only flimsy, but also totally unillustrated). We believe this "Gibraltar Library Binding" was not issued in a Dust Jacket. The front cover is photo-illustrated in full color with a terrorist wearing a ski mask, so a dust jacket would have been superfluous anyway. Although intended as a thriller for young adults, this is a captivating page-turner for readers of any age. Summary: "Events of a hijacking of a bus of children by terrorists seeking the return of their homeland are describes from the perspectives of a hostage, a terrorist, an Army general involved in the rescue operations, and his son.". SIGNED by the AUTHOR. Fifth printing. Hardcover. Fine condition/No jacket, probably as issued. 8vo. (x), 235pp.

No statement of printing but presumed later reprint with a dust jacket price of $13.95 (the first printing has a lower price) and the same dust jacket art and publisher as the first. Chipping to jacket and there is fading to its spine. Controversial and well regarded work. The Chocolate War was on the ALA's Top 10 most challenged/banned books list for several years between 2001 -2010 (including number 1 in 2004) for sexual content, religious viewpoints, and violence. Basis for the movie of the 1998 movie of the same name.
The Chocolate War. Signed by author Robert Cormier. [1974] later printing of first edition with $11.95 original price; Pantheon; near fine jacketed hardcover. Inscribed on flyleaf (in blue ink). An exceptional brown hardcover with sharp corners and clean boards. Crisp gold text on spine; clean and tidy. Unmarked other than signature. Perhaps a very very light even agetone to text. Dust jacket is very good or better with some very light edgewear. A gift-worthy copy of the novel that would later be adapted for film (1988).
