About this Item

Fine, first edition, first printing. Inscribed by the author to Lawrence and Roberta Wright. Larry Wright is the Pulitzer winner from Austin. He usually stamps his books, saying it's from his library. And this book has that stamp. Good association value. The inscription says: To Larry and Roberta: A real Southerner and a semi-Southerner with thanks, respect and best wishes from someone still trying to figure it out. The Wrights donated the book to an Austin charity, where it was acquired.
