Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Poor. 1st Edition. Stated First Edition. Signed and inscribed on the front end paper (see photo). A signed copy of one of Ms. O'Daniel's books is quite uncommon. The only signed copy of any of her books I could find for sale on the Internet happens also to be of this novel. However it is selling for $154.00. This price should be a little more palatable. The covers of the book have some handling soiling or spotting, nothing dramatic. The top edge of the spine is likely tanned. The cover edges look good. The front top corner has a speck-sized spot of rub-through. The page edges have a very light bit of tanning. The book does have a very clear forward lean. However, the binding is quite decent. I found only one instance where there was a very thin space between two facing pages, both of which are tightly bound from top to bottom. The book was probably left lying open between these two pages. The covers are nicely tight. The pages look good. Scrolling through, I'm not finding any conspicuous soiling. The inside covers and end papers have some light soiling. The front and rear end papers also both have a tan vertical shadow beside their junctures with the inside covers. I'm not seeing much by way of creasing. I saw one crease below a top corner. Some of the early and late pages have a tiny and vague semi-crease below their top corners, the kind of inconspicuous crease that develops from a little bump to a cover corner. There is a little indication of a light bump at both top corners of the covers. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And the signed inscription (along with the penned name and date of the inscribee at the top of the signed page) represents the only writing to be found anywhere in the book. You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. I have always had it in a fitted protective cover. I did that because the spine is detached from the rear cover. You can also see that there are losses at the spine ends, also a loss off the top edge of the rear cover. The jacket looks pretty clean. The flaps are in nice condition. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. 'A long, rich historical novel based on the settling of the Genesee Valley.'. Inscribed by Author(s).
