Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Robert Penn Warren was one of the leading novelist / poets of the twentieth century. Only an author of consummate talent could successfully tackle a long narrative poem. Such a remarkable narrative is "Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce Who Called Themselves the Nimipu - The Real People " ************************************** The poem is presented both in the voice of Chief Joseph, and that of the poet. It is a tragic story - of war in 1877, of broken treaties and betrayals. Always it is the Nez Perce being betrayed by the United States government. Recounted is the struggle of Chief Joseph to lead his people from danger to safety - from Idaho to Montana - and thence across the Canadian border. It is a sad story, as is so much of the history of the white man with the native tribes. Warren's poem rises to its subject matter, approaching greatness. ******************************************** This is the First Trade Edition, hardcover format, published by Random house in 1983. It is clean and attractive. *********************************************** TITLE : Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce Who Called Themselves the Nimipu - The Real People / AUTHOR : Robert Penn Warren (1905 - 1989) / IMPRINT : Random House / PLACE : New York / DATE : (1983) / EDITION : First Trade Edition hardcover format (following a limited, signed edition) The poem first appeared in "The Georgia Review". / STATUS : This edition OP / PHYSICAL DETAILS : Trade hardcover; [68] pages; approximately 6 1/8" x 9 3/16"; quarter-bound, cloth spine and paper-covered boards; decorated dust-jacket.

Hardcover first edition - First printing. Award-winning author Warren returns to the South where he was brought up and recounts conversations he had regarding segregation and integration - although his conclusion that "despite the suspicion, evasion, hatred and fear engendered by the problem now, integration one day will appear as just one small episode in the long effort for human justice" was perhaps too optimistic. Noted journalist and author Tom Wicker's copy with his handwritten name on the front endpaper. 66 pp. Near fine in black and white boards in a very good black dust jacket with some rubbing, foxing to the interior.
