(Boston: Little Brown, 1937).

AN ATTRACTIVE COPY OF THIS VERY PERSONAL INSCRIBED AND SIGNED STEGNER TITLE. A prize winning novelette, it was Wallace Stegner's first book. It was awarded the Little, Brown prize. Stegner considered J.... his favorite reader and wrote as much when he inscribed another book to her in later years. Item #27674

First Edition, INSCRIBED AND SIGNED VERY PERSONALLY to J...., the original "dear reader", by Stegner, signing as "Wally". 8vo, publisher’s original blue boards, the spine and upper cover gilt lettered, in the original dustjacket. 154 pp. A very nice copy, some offset from the dustjacket spine lettering to the spine of the book, and a few minorl chips to the jacket edges.
