First edition

What a true first shows: Random House 1997, stating 'First Trade Edition' on the copyright page with the Random House number line lacking a 1; priced jacket ($25.95). A separate signed 'first edition' was privately printed by The Franklin Library and is a different issue.

Photographs show the exact copy you will receive. Every flaw we found is listed above; if we missed one, the return is on us.
