1970Best.-Nr. 11107New York: McGraw-Hill 1970. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. Octavo 952pp. illustrated. A crisp clean copy near fine in the publisher's navy leather stamped in gilt with red leather spine label. Very gentle foxing to edges and a touch of rubbing to extremities but a nice example. This copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Moses on the half-title page: "To Betty and Vince from Bob Moses." There are a few faint foxing marks to the signature page. This is one of an unidentified but certainly small number of presentation copies specially bound by the publisher for Moses to give to friends and colleagues. An uncommon memoir which contains great swaths of reproduced correspondence between Moses and other officials relating to the various public works projects in which he was involved.
