by George Sumner Albee

New York: Ballantine Books, (1957).

First edition, first printing.

Light crease to spine, a hint of wear, else fine, in blue cloth with silver lettering and rules; in a price-clipped, near fine illustrated dust jacket that shows some minor nicking, a hint of soiling.

Jacket by J. Zabinsky.

"A magnificent job...a gentle, rueful, humorous, reflective book."--Bentz Plageman.

Comic coming-of-age tale (set in Los Angeles) in a SCARCE Ballantine hardcover by the novelist, television and screenwriter whose work is most often associated with California. He was also the father of playwright Edward Albee.

Contrary to Ballantine's practice at the time, no simultaneous paperback was issued.
