About this Item
New York/Toronto/London: McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc., 1959. Condon (1915-1996), a prolific writer of political satire is "generally considered to a visionary, a darkly comic conjurer, a student of American mythology and a master of conspiracy theories, as vividly demonstrated in 'The Manchurian Candidate" (NY Times). This is a Very Good (Minus) copy of the First Edition (stated), lacking a dustjacket. Tan paper-covered boards, pebbled (a la Jackson Pollock) in splashes of red, white, and blue. Blue cloth spine withwhite titling. Clean text; 311 pages. There is a previous-owner chop to the half-title page. Corners are bumped, the spine is rubbed at its margins, and there is a 3/4" tear at the head of the spine. A really good reading copy for our troubled times; obviously not for the advanced collector. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good (Minus)/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Seller Inventory # 004891
