About This Item

Grove Press, 1966. Mass Market Paperback. Fair. 32nd printing (probably from the early 70s) of the "first paperback edition 1966" it is marked B-146-D has a SBN and cover price of $1.95. The first page is a blurb from NYT followed by in this order: blank FFEP, title page, copyright page, dedication page, another blank page, [2] TOC pages, then introduction by M.S. Handler which is the first paginated at IX and ends at XIV, after that comes the body of the text whose pagination of 460 pages includes Alex Haley's Epilogue and an article by Ossie Davis. Finally, the end of the book has 3 pages of Grove publications. According to the TOC and the pagination nothing is missing. The text is legible and smooth and unblemished but quite yellowed; the covers are also faded and worn with several rub marks, chipping on corners and spine tips; worst of all is the binding glue has dried out and the covers are nearly detached from the text block. Though the text is still tight because of the weak glue I fear it is quite fragile and prone to splitting (already apparent from two crease lines in the spine panel).
