Author's presentation copy. With the author's signed presentation inscription to the front free endpaper, 'For Elizabeth who has been so kind as to hold my glass, I sign Norman Mailer'. From a tipped-in black and white publicity photograph the recipient met Mailer at a party and had the book signed on the spot. The UK edition for obvious reasons is uncommon in presentation state. One of Mailer's greatest journalistic achievements.

First UK edition, first impression, inscribed by the author; 8vo; publisher's blue cloth, titles to spine in silver and bronze, orange endpapers, dust-jacket, a very good copy.
