Between the Covers

Hardcover. First edition. Tall octavo. 398pp. Near fine in a tanned and soiled, near very good dust jacket with short chips and tears, price struck through in ink, and a tiny bit of label residue on the upper flap. Laid in is a friendly 1965 Typed Letter Signed on Beebe and Clegg's stationery to "John," whom Beebe knew from long ago: "Thank you for your letter, sort of like a cashier's cheque out of the brandied past." It seems that John is writing to propose a book idea, but it is already in production elsewhere. A manuscript note neat the top says "ah well. J." A nice letter, written a year before Beebe's untimely death in 1966.
