Seller's Description:

Black full cloth boards, gilt cover signature, gilt spine titles on green fields, moderate shelf wear, fleck, rub. Deckled pages very good; vintage bookstore stamp inside cover: "Acres of Books, 633 Main Street, Cincinnati". Bind good; hinges intact. Beautiful, first edition facsimile dj in clear, protective sleeve. Near very good first edition in new wrapper. The dramatic, brutal story of Harry Morgan, an honest boat owner who is forced into running contraband between Cuba and Key West as a means of keeping his crumbling family financially afloat. His adventures lead him into the world of the wealthy and dissipated yachtsmen who swarm the region, and involve him in a strange and unlikely love affair. In this harshly realistic, yet oddly tender and wise novel, Hemingway perceptively delineates the personal struggles of both the "haves" and the "have nots" and creates one of the most subtle and moving portraits of a love affair in his oeuvre. In turn funny and tragic, lively and poetic, remarkable in its emotional impact, Takes literary high adventure to a new level. As the Times Literary Supplement observed, "Hemingway's gift for dialogue, for effective understatement, and for communicating such emotions the tough allow themselves, has never been more conspicuous." 262 pages. Insured post.

Seller's Description:
VG+ in Fine (Facsimile DW) jacket. Bound in black cloth, stamped in green and gold. The gilt on the facsimile signature on the front panel is barely readable. The gold and green stamped on the spine has held up well. Endpapers show some typical yellowing with the previous owner's neat name on the ffep. Overall a very acceptable copy of the true first edition (with the "A" on the copyright page) of this Hemingway novel. Included in the price of the book is a facsimile dust jacket that fits the book perfectly.
