    Description

    First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

    The first edition, first impression.

    Bound in the publisher's cloth with the original, unclipped dust wrapper.

    A captivating collection of editorials from The New Yorker surrounding the idea of world government.

    Originally published anonymously, these editorials were compiled and with contributions from E. B. White, exploring the intriguing views on this important subject. Many of the pieces in this work deal with past efforts to establish the United Nations during the Second World War.

    With a lengthy gift inscription to the front endpaper, 'a surprising little book, spiritual in its own way. See essay on page 20 for Christmas inspiration.'.

    Condition

    Bound in the publisher's cloth with the original, unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, very smart, with slight rubbing to the spine head and tail, with the odd mark. A little fading to the board extremities. Ink inscription to front endpaper. Dust wrapper is smart, with light chipping to the extremities, the odd mark and sunning to the spine. Internally, firmly bound with bright, clean pages. Pen marks to title page, viii and 188.
