About This Item
New York: Vantage Press, 1976. First edition. Hardcover. Good/fair. Signed and inscribed by the author on the free endpaper, "Bishop Mark Hurlye - To the successor of Bishop O'Connel in the counties of Del Norte, Siskiyou (crossed out), Humboldt, Mendocino, and Lake. John T. Dwyer." A good copy - blue hardcover with silver spine titles. Corners and spine ends bruised past the paper coverings. The interior is unmarked other than the author's inscription. Solid binding and hinges, though lacking tightness. The dustjacket is only fair with paper loss , tears, and tape reinforcements to the inside of the jacket. 302 pp., indexed, some black and white photos, and listings of bishops and pastors from the region. An interesting examination of Irish Bishop O'Connell and his work in the west.
