Black w/gilt lettering. Minor bumping to head and heel of spine, gilt lettering dulled. Previous owner book plate pasted neatly inside front cover. Signed by Dever on the front endpaper: "July 28, 1951 For_____, with cordial good wishes from Ken and Joseph Dever" Text clean and white, no marks. Unclipped DJ shows tiny chips and wear head and heel, loss at head of spine, front flap torn free but still with book. Says Dever in an interview of this book: "One might note in my second novel, A Certain Widow, a passion for Boston politics, an understanding of juvenile delinquency, and a fascination with the complexities of an Irish matriarch who drives one son into an ill-fated vocation for the priesthood and coddles the other son into a rebellious marriage with a blue-blood divorcee.".
