A typed manuscript, there were reportedly only 20 copies printed and of REVENGE only - not the other two novellas. It was given to the publisher's representatives at a meeting in 1979 and PRECEDES ALL BOUND GALLEYS. Page 14 is omitted, an error by Harrison when he typed the final version. This was a typing error only, the novella is complete. About Fine, one short edge tear to margin of last page, and similarly to title page.117 unbound pages. A unique and premium item of one of America's finest authors. Exceedingly SCARCE. Size: 8 1/2" x 11". Seller Inventory # 000520

Seller: Cleveland Book Company, ABAA, Rocky River, OH, U.S.A.
Hardcover. Condition: Near fine. First Edition. Octavo, 3 volumes. Limited slipcased set, issued simultaneously with the one-volume trade edition, and without dust jackets. All three volumes near fine in the publisher's speckled off-white cloth, with some isolated foxing to the spines. Contents clean, fresh, and unmarked. In the publisher's slipcase, gently toned at the edges, but sound; near fine. The title novella is Harrison's best-known work, a gut-wrenching family tale which ties together the ugliness of America's westward expansion and the tragedy of World War I. Made into an award-winning film starring Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins. Apparently issued in an edition of 1,000 sets, there is no limitation statement, but it is distinctly less common than the one-volume trade edition. Seller Inventory # 13347
