First U.K. edition. The book is reasonably firmly bound in slightly marked and rubbed mustard yellow cloth, lettered and decorated in black, the boards are slightly bowed and the extremities are bumped. The text block is slightly foxed, marked and age toned, with minor cracking at points and a few dog-eared page corners. The dust jacket, with artwork by Robb, is the original and not price clipped, it is quite toned, marked and foxed, with small areas of loss, minor chips and short closed tears to the edges, some repaired to the reverse with thin paper archival tape. An episodic novel of American prison life and the justice system, based loosely on Tully's own experiences as a hobo and vagabond during his youth, and tales collected subsequently. The English edition, published during Knopf's brief period as a London publishing house, is rare, especially in the dust jacket, with its artwork which is at once both more sympathetic and sinister than that for the American edition.
