The Brick Foxhole

New York: Harper and Brothers, (1945).

Price: $475.00

Hardcover. First edition. Gift inscription, else fine in a price-clipped, near fine dustwrapper with a slightly faded spine, but fresher than usually found. Jacket art by Hoffman. First novel by Brooks, who went on to become one of Hollywood's best screenwriters and directors. Basis for the excellent noir film *Crossfire* with Robert Young, Robert Mitchum, and Robert Ryan. A nicer than usual copy, especially considering the poor wartime manufacturing employed.
