The Book of Jamaica (association copy)
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1980. First edition. Hardcover. An association copy, inscribed to Jim Harrison, author of Legends of the Fall, on the front free endpaper: "To Jimbo--after all these years. Russell." His third novel, which, as the title suggests, journeys to Jamaica and sinks into the island's culture. Banks was twice a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize among other honors. A very good minus or good only book, unfortunately, with a slanted spine, some rumpling to cloth at top of spine, and a few finger prints at the edges of the front board. In a jacket with wear and some dampstaining. Nonetheless a compelling association. Good / Good. Item #1290
