About This Item
This novel was first published in Paris, in Russian, in 1962, under the title PODVIG (The Feat). When it was first translated, it was titled The Exploit.
In 1971, that was changed to Glory when McGraw-Hill published the first North American edition. This copy is one of those 1971 first editions.
It is about a Russian emigre's escape from Russia, his education in England, and his disastrous return to his homeland (the feat).
This copy has not been read. It is beautifully-designed.
Aside from some discoloration to the dust jacket, this book is in pristine condition.
Note: If you are outside of North America, the quoted shipping price is for surface mail without tracking. For other options, please contact me.
