ROBERT PENN WARREN. — All the King's Men. A novel.
Eyre & Spottiswoode, London, 1st Edition, The first UK edition (first printing), issued two years after the somewhat more common US edition. 8vo. 514pp. Black cloth lettered in gold at the spine. A little fading to the publisher's blue top edge stain, and just a trace of bruising to the base of the backstrip. A very good copy housed in two copies of the original first state (blue, not red) dust wrapper, one of which is price-clipped, lightly nicked and with just a touch of edge-wear, and the other non-clipped but with a quite small triangular area of loss from the head of the front panel. The author's third novel, winner of the 1947 Pulitzer Prize (making Warren the only person to have won Pulitzers for both fiction and poetry)., Very Good, Very Good
