About this Item

Hardcover with dust jacket. First edition stated; code G 24 present on page 185, as apparently required. Book is very clean and sharp; spine ends unbumped, and clear of any markings except for the typical remainder speckling on bottom edge. Jacket has a couple of minor flaws mostly around the edges: a bit of wear at base of spine, minor spotting on rear panel; a stain of some sort at the top of the front panel above P. Not ex-library. Butler's first book: a collectible title from an important author.
