NY, Putnam, (1984). His first book of nonfiction. Inscribed by the author: "For Bill and Jean, affectionately, Jack. 11/84." The recipients were poet Bill Sylvester, who taught with Barth at SUNY Buffalo in the 1960s and became a lifelong friend, and his wife Jean. A touch of fading to the ends of the spine cloth, else fine in a near fine dust jacket creased on the front flap. A nice association copy. [#028149] $100

All books are first printings of first editions or first American editions unless otherwise noted.
