Hardcover. Condition: Very Good +. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First Edition. A Handful of Stars by Ray House was published by Touchstone Publishing Company in 1970. Not an ex-library copy, this 315-page, approximately 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", Signed First Edition is in VG+/G condition. The book, for its 41 years, is practically like new, save for some very modest yellowing of its endpapers front and back as well as the pages of text, and some barely noticeable shelf wear at top and bottom edges of volume's spine. The dust jacket, perhaps from doing such an admirable job of housing its book, shows a bit more wear. It was necessary to clear tape in 5-6 random spots, mainly to repair/keep from worsening small tears. Fairly modest shelf wear is seen at top and bottom edges of jacket's spine, as well as at the four edges where front and back inside flaps actually make their inward folds. Other than that, this is a really nice jacket, newer in appearance than its age suggests. The book is SIGNED by its author in the central portion of the front loose end page. From back inside jacket flap, "A Handful of Stars is the story of Appalachia--its people, their feuds, their poverty, their pride, their family loyalty, their pitifully strip-mined land, their sense of history, their folkways and superstitions. More importantly, it is the story of a young man from the hills who discovers himself while reconstructing his past." I don't know about you, Reader, but I sense the presence of a bit of a "coming-of-age" saga, thinly disguised as a fictional story, in novel form. The author notes, in his Foreword, "Five years, off and on, went into the research and writing of this story, which is fiction based on present fact and history." Our protagonist, Jesse Tolliver, may well be the author. At any rate, if you are a resident, present or past, of that storied region of America that is Appalachia, or one who is drawn to stories that take place in an area so rich in so many ways, but poor in too many others, this offering may well be worth exploring. Thank you very much!! Signed by Author(s).
