About This Item

New York: Pantheon Books, 1996. First Edition. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Fine/Near Fine. 8vo. Pp. 324. Endpaper maps. Bound in pale grey half-cloth over grey paper-covered boards. In the price-clipped dust jacket. Signed by Raban in full on the title page. First printing of the first edition. Verlyn Klinkenborg, in a New York Times review, suggests "America has always been nourished by the optimism of its immigrants." That's the very subject of Raban's thesis, whether fulfilling a Jefferson ideal or a Monroe doctrine. Dust jacket is now preserved within a clear, removable archival sleeve.
