Petain: The Old Man of France First edition. Quarto. Stapled wrappers. Very faint dampstain to the tops of the front and rear wrapper and a very faint horizontal crease on the right side of the front wrap, still a nice, very good plus copy of an extremely scarce book -- Flanner's view of Marshall Petain, WWI hero turned figurehead for the Nazi-controlled Vichy government in WWII. This copy Inscribed by the author to New Yorker colleague James Thurber and his wife: "To the Thurbers, and the South of France, and their Cook. Janet." A superb association. [BTC #41058] |
