Subtitle: "Memoirs of a Country 'Vet'". Published in 1940 by Waverly House, Boston. Signed and inscribed by the author on first blank endsheet in December 1947 (see photos; note: book was obtained already signed). Hard cover with dust jacket (DJ). See photos for condition. DJ is wrapped in a plastic film. DJ has edgewear - whitening, ripping, creasing, and small bits missing from top and bottom edges and corners. DJ is toning and darkening, most apparent on back. Hard cover boards are firm. Fabric on boards appears to have some foxing - spotted discoloration. Fabric on board corners has a bit of wear. Binding loosening with age but holding together well - some widening in gutters in place (see photos for example). Otherwise, text block appears to be in excellent shape. Pages appear clean and clear of highlighting, writing, markings, underlining, or notable damage (e.g., significant ripping, creasing, or staining, or pages missing).

Terms of sale
No Alternative books: 69 Phillips St, Greenfield MA 01301; 978-201-9901; lukehuszar@gmail.com. All listed items are subject to prior sale. Books may be returned up to 30 days after arrival so long as the condition of the book has not changed - contact me.
Shipping terms
Orders ship within 2 business days of payment - typically next day. Orders are shipped via USPS media mail at a flat rate of $6 and $2 for each additional item. Orders can also be shipped via USPS priority mail for $15 for the first book. For both services, customers will be contacted if heavy/oversized books require additional shipping costs, or if the shipping destination requires additional shipping costs.
Important note for non-US buyers: International orders are billed at cost, and this cost varies greatly with the weight and size of the order. If you are ordering oversized volumes or multiple books, expect notably higher shipping costs. When you place your order, I will estimate the shipping options and costs with PirateShip and email you about these options. When we agree on a shipping method, I will send an invoice for the additional shipping costs through Abebooks, and will pack and ship the order once this is paid. If it turns out that your order costs less to ship than the default international shipping cost that I use for my books, I will reiumburse you for the difference.
