It points the way to most of his subsequent writing" this example of a short story cycle may well be Steinbeck's finest work scarce when found with the correct dust jacket those jackets that are noted as 2 mm shorter than the book are second issue jackets. Very good copy in a restored jacket. NY, Brewer, Warren & Putnam, 1932, first edition, dust jacket. Hardcover. hardcover
