Sobre este artículo
First Edition; A Near Fine book in a Near Fine dust jacket. SIGNED, inscribed, and dated by the author to the front free paper. A remarkably well preserved copy of this account of General MacArthur and the defense of Bataan, written and published just months after the surrender of Bataan and Corregidor. This copy is apparently inscribed to Alfred A. Knopf Jr. (nickname Pat), the son of the founder of the Knopf publishing company; Alfred Jr. was a bomber pilot during WWII, flying over 100 missions during the war; later, he founded the Atheneum Publishing Company. This copy is in near fine condition showing only a mild darkening to the spine and minor offsetting to the pastedowns and endpapers; housed in a beautiful crisp and bright near fine jacket that shows only a mild sunning to the spine and some light rubbing to the front flap fold and corners, else fine. An important and unique addition to any WWII/Pacific Theater collection. Not remaindered, not price clipped, not ex-library; in a protective Mylar sleeve and will ship carefully wrapped in a sturdy box.
