Clean pages except for a prior owner's name on the front free endpaper and the editor's signed card (Virginia Hilu) pasted to the front fixed endpaper; binding leans to the right but remains secure, the brown cloth hard cover showing a pale spot on the rear and modest sunning along the spine, otherwise well-kept. Lacks jacket. 38pp. In the crowded field of excellent acceptance speeches, this remains among the most startling and most eloquent ever given.
