Sobre este artículo
"THE DEVIL'S DICTIONARY" - A Selection of the Bitter Definitions of Ambrose Bierce. 1958; Peter Pauper Press; Mount Vernon, New York. The book comes with its original dust jacket. There are illustrations in color. From the Publisher's Note: "This iconoclastic little book is made up of the best items that Bierce the newspaperman wrote between 1881 and 1906. Like Bierce himself the book is irreverent, bitter, clever. Like him - for it came from the depths of him despite its light tone - it will shock those who think that life is, or can be, beautiful. Beneath its mocking laughter we can discern, understand and forgive the dark forces that drove him through his desperate, angry tour of life."
Condition:
Light foxing to the covers and spine. Sharp cover corners. Tight binding with no cracks and no loose pages. Both covers are firmly attached. The text pages are clean and appear unread with no issues found. The end papers and pastedowns have light foxing and tanning from the jacket flaps. Overall the book is in Very Good condition.
