NY: Harcourt, Brace & World, 1969. First edition. 242pp. Black cloth; dust jacket. Rear board corners very lightly bumped, a touch of soiling at bottom of textblock fore-edge. Else fine, in an unclipped "$5.95" jacket. Inscribed by Carpenter with a doodle of what might be a frog on the front free end paper.
The third book, a collection of short stories, by American writer Don Carpenter (1931-1995). This copy inscribed by Carpenter to noted New York bookseller and bibliophile Burt Britton (1933-2018). A superlative copy, with nice provenance.
