Unbowed - A Memoir by Maathai, Wangari - 2006

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2006. First edition. Hardcover. Good +/good +. Signed and inscribed by the author on the half-title page, "Sarah, Best wishes! Wangari." Tan and green paper-covered boards with gilt spine lettering, stated first edition in dustjacket. A good+ copy with bending at the corners and crimping at the spine tips. Minor bumping along the top edge of the front board. A clean and unmarked copy other than the author's signature, in a tight binding as if unread. The jacket is unclipped with matching wear along the panel edges, and the rear flap was folded unevenly from the printer, leading to a short tear at the top of the fold. 314pp., indexed, some black and white photos. The personal memoir of this 2004 Nobel Peace Prize winner from Kenya.
