From James Michener, the acknowledged master of the historical epic, comes this sweeping tale of South Africa. The book is inscribed 'To ____ with best wishes'. It is then signed and dated. The book itself is very near fine. There is the slightest shelf wear to the bottom outside edge and a couple of very light and tiny marks on the spine. The dust jacket is also near fine and shows some minor wear to the top and bottom. There is also a light crease to the inner front flap that is difficult to see because it has flattened well over time. The dramatic presentation of actual and fictional characters in a background of historical events is James Michener at his best. We are happy to send pictures on request.
