Doubleday Doran, 1930. First Edition. Hardcover. Good. Green cloth boards with white lettering under illustrated dust jacket. White stain to edge of front board & larger triangle to rear board, else very good condition. Dust jacket has rubbing & green stain from cloth on reverse, but presents well.
