first edition Hardcover
1974 · New York
by KRIM, Seymour
New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1974. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. First edition. Near fine in near fine dustwrapper. Inscribed by Krim to an important African-American author and critic: "9/27/74 For Al & Mozelle; well, you can't win 'em all; I expect to get socked on this, but with passion - Al, you & I have a little workout on p. 316, but break clean. Krim." On the cited page Krim is highly complimentary of Murray's writing style, but compares him unfavorably to Julius Lester as far as his influence on future generations of writers.
