The Doctor's Son and Other Stories
New York: Harcourt, Brace and Company, (1935).
Sold
Hardcover. First edition. Fine in a very attractive, near fine dustwrapper that is a trifle sunned at the top edge and with a ¼" chip at the crown, affecting a few letters of text. O'Hara's second book and his first collection of short stories, for which he is justly renowned. Easily O'Hara's rarest title. One of the nicest copies we have seen in the past 30 years.
