Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Good. 1st Edition. Printed in the U.S.A. Date on the title page. First Printing. Acknowledgments, Selected Chapter Sources, Bibliography, Index; x, [ii], 516 pages. The original dark-blue cloth is excellent: corners square and gilt title-block and lettering on the spine as bright as if just issued. Top-edge colored blue-gray. The interior is creamy-bright and completely clean, despite a hint of pale toning to the endpapers (touching the frontispiece and title page, q.v.). A lovely copy. The original dust jacket is unclipped ($5.00), but only good---with some spotting, a few tiny chips, and two small tears; no text affected. [Please see my 9 images of the actual book.] "Eugene Debs was the unchallenged head of the Socialist Party. No task was too small or too large for Debs to attempt when party welfare was concerned, regardless of health or personal well-being. In the midst of bitter party strife, in the despair of party defeat, he alone commanded the respect and possessed the ability and initiative sufficient to keep it alive. In his lifetime he was its only presidential candidate. And when a schism divided the Party after World War I was over, he remained true to the Party's ideals and rejected Communism."
