1931réf. 2928London: Methuen & Co. 1931. First British edition of the author's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel and masterpiece. Octavo original light brown cloth. Signed by Pearl Buck on the title page. Near fine in the rare dust jacket which shows light wear to the extremities with minute expert restoration. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. Rare signed. Over eighty years have passed since The Good Earth won the Pulitzer Prize it has retained its popularity and become one of the great modern classics. "I can only write what I know and I know nothing but China having always lived there" wrote Pearl Buck.
