Includes a Preliminary Page List of Books by John Steinbeck, listing the volume entitled "Saint Katy the Virgin," and the second to last sentence on page 9 contains the world "loosely.". The blank first free front endpaper contains a small 2 inch by 2 1/2 inch newspaper clipping neatly cut and affixed to the endpaper, and discussing Of Mice and Men.

All other pages are in fine condition and the binding is tight and square. (see photographs). "In every bit of honest writing in the world there is a base theme. Try to understand men, if you understand each other you will be kind to each other. Knowing a man well never leads to hate and nearly always leads to love. There are shorter means, many of them. There is writing promoting social change, writing punishing injustice, writing in celebration of heroism, but always that base theme. Try to understand each other." - John Steinbeck in his 1938 journal entry. Seller Inventory # 004331
