About This Item
This is a stated first edition of Washington, DC, a 1967 novel by the American author Gore Vidal (1925-2012).
It is part of his Narratives of Empire series of historical novels; it begins in 1937 and moves into the Cold War, tracing the fortunes of a senator and a newspaper publisher.
It is a plain, elegant book. Gray covers, with brilliant gold lettering on the spine. The dust jacket is as you see it, with shelfwear to the spine. The book is pristine, with no shelfwear at all. Inside, there are a few small dogears but it is otherwise in perfect condition, with no marks of any kind in it or on it.
