Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First American Edition (Rinehart colophon on the copyright page). You can see the brown covers in the photos. They are very clean. The white lettering on the spine is nicely bright. There is a nick at the top edge of the front cover. There is a little color fade at the top edge of th…e spine, also a small crease. Outside of that one nick, the edges are in excellent shape. All four corners are in excellent shape. The page edges look very good. The book is solidly bound from cover to cover. The covers are nicely, tightly bound. There are no binding issues anywhere in the book. The pages are very clean. That includes the inside white covers and end papers. I didn't see any soiling anywhere. However, it should be noted that, similar to a number of other D.E. Stevenson titles published by Rinehart, the pages, are very toned, though uniformly. Scrolling through the book, I also found eleven consecutive pages with a pinprick-sized nick just above their bottom corners. I also saw one instance of a tiny tear, just above the bottom edge of a page. The tiny tear and the nicks are far from the print. I did not see any creasing, no turned-down corners or placeholder creases. There are no markings anywhere in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. I will include the dust jacket but have left it out in the pricing due to its condition. It had a stiff vertical crease at the spine when I began writing the listing, but that turned into a tear that has detached one side of the spine from the other. There is also some soiling off the top edge of the front and the top edge of the spine. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. As a result of the detachment a reduce the price to $20.00 from the $35.00 I had originally intended to charge. From the dust jacket: 'A warm and moving love story in the Stevenson tradition combining the beauty of the Scottish border country with the gaiety and warmth of provincial France in a novel of unusual charm. A story told with great perception by a storyteller whose novels are beloved by thousands.'.
