Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First edition. Topstain with a couple tiny spots, binding lightly cocked, near fine in an about very good dust jacket with chips, tears, moderate wear primarily to the rear panel and a long tear at the rear flap fold. Author's first novel, a desperate-young-man-in-existential-quandary-coming-of-age saga set in Manhattan, in a modified stream-of-consciousness-jazz-age-hardboiled style. There we've used up our quota of hyphens for the day. Uncommon.

Softcover. Zustand: Good. Quarto. Carbon leaves typed rectos only in brad-bound unprinted wrappers. Author's phone number handwritten on the title page, wrappers quite worn, first leaf partly pulled away, overall good or better, internally very good. An unpublished play about Charles Lee and the American Revolution that was later adapted into a 1942 novel published by Farrar and Rinehart. The denouement in the third act revolves around the Battle of Monmouth in Freehold, New Jersey. This play was apparently unpublished and possibly unproduced. The only mention we can find of the play is in a single record of a program for the WPA Federal Theatre Program (held in Germany!). *OCLC* records no copies of this script, and the play version is apparently unrecorded.
