The Two-Ocean War (Signed First Edition)
- SIGNED
- USA: Little Brown & Co (t), 1963
Stated First Edition; A Very Good or better book in a Very Good dust jacket. SIGNED and inscribed by the author to an attached sheet (apparently another dust jacket front panel). A handsome copy of this one volume account of the US Navy in WWII; basically a condensation of Morison's 15 volume masterpiece "A History of United States Naval Operations in World War II"; Morison a multiple award winning author, including 2 Pulitzer Prizes, and served with the Navy as a Lt. Commander during WWII as a researcher and historian. This copy is in very good or better condition with mild rubbing to the board edges and spine ends; flaps from another dust jacket affixed to the front pastedown and rear free papers. Housed in a crisp and clean very good dust jacket that shows light rubbing and chipping to the ends and edges, mild darkening to the spine, and a few pieces of tape repair. Overall, a very presentable copy of an important WWII title; this book rarely found signed by Morison. Not remaindered, not price clipped, not ex-library; in a protective Mylar sleeve and will ship carefully wrapped in a sturdy box.
