A propos de cet article

First Edition (The Vanguard Press=NAP). This book is in truly excellent condition. You can see the covers in the photos provided. They are exceptionally clean. The gilt and red lettering on the spine is very bright. The edges and corners are free of any wear. The spine ends have just a tiny bit of crinkling. The page edges are exceptionally clean. The book is square and very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages and covers. The inside covers and end papers are a bright yellow. They too are exceptionally clean. That accurately describes all of the pages in the book. I scrolled through without finding any instances of soiling. The only imperfection I see is a small and very light crease off the bottom edge of the pages on both sides of their junctures, probably the result of a bump. These small creases are far from the print. There are no corner creases to be found anywhere in the book. There are no markings. There are no attachments. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. The dust jacket is in solid condition. You can see it in the first few photos. It's quite clean. It has some crinkling at both spine ends. There is a little bit of scuffing at the bottom edge of the spine and just adjacent, as well as two small spots on the rear side of the spine. There is one very tiny tear off the top edge of the front. I don't see any other tears. The jacket's flaps are in very good condition. They both have a little bit of toning just off their top edges. They're otherwise very clean. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. It will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are scanned. Here are a few blurbs from the front flap of the jacket: "Compulsively readable"-- The Oxford Mail; "A complete picture of a personality, accompanied by a dramatic plot that becomes as exciting as a murder story"-- The New Statesman; "In often gamey terms, this stream-of- consciousness account of a her when who couldn't say no gives a graphic picture of man's inhumanity to woman, also of mother-daughter warfare."-- Caroline Bird (British poet, playwright and feminist). 'Lila Karp (1933-2008) was an activist, writer, teacher and feminist. She is known for her novel The Queen is in the Garbage, and is profiled in the book Feminists Who Changed America, 1963-1975. She was among the second-wave feminists in New York in the 1960s and was a member of The Feminists. This group included such notables as Kate Millet, Flo Kennedy, Ti--Grace Atkinson, and Margo Jefferson. Ms. Karp was featured in the 1977 documentary Some American Feminists. She played a vital role in pioneering the field of Women's Studies at Princeton University, where she served as the director of the University Women's Center. She delivered a paper on the subject entitled "Women's Studies: Fear and Loathing in the Ivy League" at the National Women's Studies Association Meeting in 1979. She was appointed the co-director of The Institute for the Study of Women and Men at the University of Southern California in 1991.'.…

Description de la boutique

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
