About This Item
London: Arthur Barker, 1935. The book is very near fine, bound in wheat colored buckram, stamped in red. The dust jacket is overall in decent condition, but the front panel has a small scrape that affects the "OO" in Shoot and the spine of the dust jacket shows darkening but still certainly readable. The first British edition of this, the author's first book and basis for the highly acclaimed 1969 movie directed by Sydney Pollack that starred Michael Sarrazin and Jane Fonda. 233 pp. . First U.K. Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good - Price-clipped. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
