Item Info

 

CAIN, James M.

Our Government

First edition. Fine in a very good example of the first issue dustwrapper (with dollar signs vs second issue with bloated plutocrat on the front panel) with a modest chip on the front panel, a couple of tears, and a little tanning and splash marks on the spine. Cain's first book, a collection of "dialogues" or short pieces on politics and government that Cain wrote as reportage for various newspapers, and that display the concise but gritty style that eventually made it into his fiction. Despite some benign neglect of this title by collectors because it leans towards non-fiction, nice copies have become exceptionally uncommon.
