A fine copy in a very good unclipped dustjacket. This copy is signed by the author on the title page--signature only. A Tight and clean copy--unmarked. The dustjacket is complete and unclipped with only a tiny bit of shallow edgewear to the upper spine and one small 1/2" tear to the upper front board--with a small amount of missing paper. A Harvard trained medical Dr. who started writing science and medical themed novels and never looked back. This first book however, was about Egypt and Egyptology--a lifelok interest the author had.
