First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Edition (Number Line to 1). Signed and inscribed ('For Marty and Harriet with affection, Larry Brown, March 1999') on the first front end paper. This is a rather rare signature. I saw only one other. You can see the covers of the book in the photographs provided. It is perfectly clean, spotless. It has one imperfection, a bump/crease off the top edge of the front cover (see photo). The covers are otherwise in excellent condition. The interior of the book looks pretty much perfect. I didn't see any soiling. I didn't see any wear. There aren't any markings or attachments. And with the exception of the author's signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The book is also very solidly bound, without issue. There are eight pages of black-and-white photographs. The dust jacket is pretty close to perfect. It is spotless. It is NOT price-clipped. There are no tears. There is a slight amount of crinkling at the spine ends. I will fit the jacket with a protective cover after the photographs have been scanned. 'Living Hungry in America is the compelling saga of the dozens of prominent physicians who traveled across America to uncover the tragedy of hunger in the world's richest nation. Led by J. Larry Brown of the Harvard School of Public Health, they entered the lives and homes of hundreds of hungry families.' Dr. Brown directs the national Center on Hunger and Poverty, located within the Heller School for Social Policy and Management at Brandeis University, where he holds the title of Distinguished Scientist. Formerly on the faculty of the Harvard School of Public Health, Brown chaired the Physician Task Force on Hunger in America, leading a team of prominent medical leaders on field investigations into half the states in the nation during the 1980s. Their work drew sustained national media attention, and led Congress to take steps to address the growing problem of hunger. Brown is the immediate past chairman of the board of Oxfam America, and served as Assistant Director of Peace Corps/VISTA under President Carter. He also chaired the Medical Task Force of USA for Africa/Hands Across America. Dr. Brown is the author of numerous articles in both lay and scientific journals, including Scientific American and The Encyclopaedia Britannica Medical and Health Annual. He is the author of several books including Living Hungry in America. Inscribed by Author(s).
