About This Item
About this Item: E. P. Dutton & Company, New York, 1947. Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Book is near fine, bound in blue cloth with gilt spine lettering and nice gilt blind stamp on the front. Book has minor wear at the spine ends. Book is square crisp and unmarked. Priced (3.50) Dust jacket is very good with chipping at the top of the spine and a 1/2" chip at the top front of jacket. Some of the most fascinating and important stories discovered by foreign correspondents never appear in your newspapers or magazines. Sometimes censorship blocks them, sometimes reasons of policy, lack of space or time. In Deadline Delayed the members of the Overseas Press Club of America have an opportunity to tell these stories. These are real stories and not alleged fake news. Book is quite interesting and in many stories educational. Book is protected in Mylar.
