Hardcover. First edition. Slight spotting to the boards, else near fine, lacking the very uncommon dustwrapper. Nicely Inscribed by the author: "Salem, Ore. Jan. 1929 Inscribed by the author for Mr. F.W. Wilcox on behalf of Monroe and Myrtle With all good wishes Albert Richard Wetjen." This novel, about a rollicking group of merchant marines letting loose in port, was the basis for the 1930 film directed by Sam Wood, notable mostly for being one of the few talkie's to feature John Gilbert, who appeared along with Wallace Beery, Leila Hyams, Polly Moran, and Doris Lloyd, and with a short appearance by an uncredited Ray Milland. The film, despite a screenplay W.L. River and Laurence Stallings, additional dialogue by Charles MacArthur, and the only acting appearance in a film by author Jim Tully, was by all accounts a failure, and helped to deliver yet another nail into the coffin of the once-enormously successful Gilbert's career, reportedly hastened by the enmity of studio boss Louis B. Mayer. …
