About This Item
NY: St. Martins, 2002. First Edition . Hardcover. Near Fine/Fine. Fascinating effort by Hoff, justifiably well regarded author of the most accessible book on Taoism ever written. From the flap, " Hoff, author of THE TAO OF POOH, reshapes the 1947 Dixon story, THE HOUSE ON THE CLIFF, into a mystery for readers of all ages." Beautiful copy, approaching, 'As New' condition. Very nicely made, great use of spine gilt, fresh medium blue cloth, Text perfect, brilliant white. 'Jacket' is a top to bottom sleeve wrapping round front cover (slides onto board) it deserves dust jkt. I may attempt to fabricate one. Someone at the book store selling the item laid adhesive ISBN label at lower back on cloth (normally would be put on Jkt.) which, while coming off easily and without solvent has left a hint of ghosting, almost imperceptible. *We feel that books offered for internet sale should be described thoroughly and accurately. We assure the buyer that books listed by Brass Dolphin are so described, using the strict, traditional standards.*
