Sold
Hardcover. First edition. Tiny dampstain touching a couple of pages, fine in near fine dustwrapper with a short tear and some nicking at the crown. Inscribed by the author on the half-title, and with a small, brief, non-authorial gift inscription probably added at a later date. Basis for the marvelous film, shot on location in Florida, with Gregory Peck, Jane Wyman, and Claude Jarman, Jr., who won a special Academy Award as Jody Baxter. A Pulitzer Prize-winning classic, very seldom found signed.
