About This Item

New York: Atheneum, 1974. Very Good+ in a Very Good+ dustjacket. Blue and mustard-yellow cloth. Both the spine and the front panel are stamped in gilt. Octavo. Red topstain and endpapers. 311pps. Stated First Edition. There is a slight lean to the spine and mild bumping to the spine-ends, otherwise clean, bright, and soundly bound. The textblock is immaculate; no previous ownership markings. The dustjacket, glossy in a mylar sleeve, has touches of crinkling with a couple of small nicks at the head of the spine; the original price (8.95) is intact. This is an association copy, SIGNED and inscribed by the author (Eric A.) to the film producer Jules (Buck) and his wife, Joyce, with the word 'Pow!' on the title-page. ".Based in the civil hospital on a small island in the French Antilles, Ernesto Castillo's father, deeply and powerfully involved in the violent politics of a Central American state, was assassinated -- some say martyred. Many interested parties -- North American and French to name but two -- wondered if political ambitions, or even thoughts of revenge, stirred in the impassive frame of Castillo. It took a month -- the time span of the novel -- to find out." Purchase with confidence: all books, gradings, and descriptions are rendered the care of a genuine bibliophile. Satisfaction guaranteed or all costs you've incurred will be promptly refunded. Thanks for your interest in Nooks Of Books. To assist with your decision, photos can be emailed upon request.. SIGNED by the Author. First Edition. Cloth.

Terms of Sale

Nooks Of Books


Payment Methods Accepted:
We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover Card, and checks or money orders made out to Jeffrey C. Wright. You can also, if you like, make your payment -- credit card or bank transfer -- through Paypal.com (Acct name: nooksofbooks@comcast.net).

Grading:
Dealers who are otherwise members of prestigious bookselling organizations should know that you can\'t grade a book Fine if it\'s remaindered; nor can a dustjacket be graded Fine that is price-clipped. And yet we see this sort of thing -- more and more -- and from all manner of establishments. It reflects poorly on the industry.
Thus, we recommend that any prospective online customer insist on a thorough description (such as are issued through these Nooks) for any collectible item. We\'re well-versed, here, in the grading process and we do so fairly if not conservatively.

Refunds:
We understand all too well the hesitancy of some collectors to make their purchases online, particularly in such cases where books are scarce or costly. We, therefore, stress the integrity in these Nooks. Your satisfaction is guaranteed, or all costs you\'ve incurred will be refunded -- no questions asked -- providing the book is returned to us in the same condition within two weeks.

Shipping:
Though most booksellers are quite professional and know how to properly handle their wares, I\'ve noticed (being a book-buyer, too) that many online shops can be slipshod and amateurish in their shipping practices. This being so, we\'d like to assure you: when you buy from us the item will be nicely and securely presented. It will be gift-wrapped, sealed in a plastic bag to protect it against water damage, encased in bubble wrap and/or foam \'peanuts\' and boxed. We ship books out the way we like to receive them. Except, perhaps, in the rare occasion of an inexpensive reading copy, I\'d not think of consigning a book from these Nooks to the hard knocks of the postal system in a simple bubble-mailer. You won\'t get that shoddy handling here.

Insurance:
It is our policy to pay the insurance for any purchase over $200.00. Should you like to provide your own insurance for less of a sum, the cost is $1.30 for $50.00 of coverage, $2.20 for $100.00, and $3.20 for up to $200.00 of coverage. Insurance, in such cases, is suggested (simply state your preference in the comments segment during checkout) as we cannot be responsible for books that are lost in transit.
