Fleming, The World Publishing Company, Cleveland, first edition, first printing, 1960. 616 pp, hardcover in excellent condition with dustjacket in good condition and later mylar protective cover. The bookplate of Mason Welch Gross is lightly pasted on the inside cover. A gift inscription, with initials, is in pencil by an unknown person. Gross served as president of Rutgers University from 1959 through 1971. The book is clean and tight with some slight toning along hinges of the front and back inside covers.
