Item description from seller

First Edition (actually this Preliminary Draft precedes the First Edition. The book was published by Grossman Publishers in 1973. The title was 'Bitter wages: Ralph Nader's study group report on disease and injury on the job'. Once listed, this will be the only copy of the Preliminary Draft for sale anywhere on the Internet. As you can see from the photographs, it is spiral-bound. The binding is very solid and secure. All of the spirals are in place and without issue. This draft is very thick and while the pages are numbered, the numbering begins at 1 with each new chapter. There are 10 chapters. The 10th is titled Conclusions And Recommendations. There are a great many footnotes throughout the draft and there are many pages of the related endnotes after the end of the 10th chapter, ie. Chapter One---Notes, Chapter Two--Notes, etc. The covers are very clean. There is a tiny tear off the bottom edge of the front. There is also some color fading on the front next to the spiral spine. On the back cover there are a few small creases and a long vertical crease at its center. The pages are in excellent condition. They are also very clean. I didn't see any soiling. No one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. And there aren't any attachments or markings. A truly unique item.

Store description

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.

Specialty

My large inventory of books is focused on rare, collectible books, mainly hardcovers, many signed.
