First printing (with date at foot of title page per Houghton Mifflin's standard contemporary practice) SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. xiv, 380 pages. Hardcover: H 21cm x L 14.25cm.

Author's blue ink signature " David L. Cohn" at top of front free endpaper. Slight toning to endpapers; interior pages are otherwise clean. Binding is firm. A very good copy.
