About this Item

Description:

Second printing. Signed by author. Pierrepont Noyes was the son of John Humphrey Noyes, the leader of the Oneida Community, a nineteenth century religious group that practiced eugenics. In "Pallid Giant," an ancient advanced civilization destroys themselves with a superweapon and the survivors breed with sub-humans to produce modern man. This book was later reissued in 1946 as "Gentlemen, You are Mad!" following the US bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Belly band and jacket are torn and chipped along edges, but both are protected by mylar covers. Cover corners are lightly bumped and worn. Top edge of front cover is dented. Spine is lightly bumped, but binding is secure. Pages are lightly tanned, but text is bright, clean, and unmarked. Seller Inventory # 106776

Hardcover. black-and-white frontispiece (illustrator). 1st edition. pp. 300. 8vo. Bound in original dark blue cloth with white title labels. The white labels to the front board and spine, so often seen pulled, scraped, or soiled, are both in near-perfect condition. There is just the slightest spot of scuffing to the boards; else the book is clean, tight, and in near fine condition. The original dust jacket is not price-clipped. It is a bit chipped across the edges and at the tips of the folds, and shows some light scuffing and soiling; else in good plus, to very good, condition. An exceptional copy.
