First UK edition. Hardback in dust jacket. Brick-red top-stain. 190pp. Spine ends a little bruised. Jacket shelf-rubbed and a little scuffed to spine ends. A near fine copy. *** A beautiful first UK edition of the first book by American writer Charles Portis (1933-2020), probably best known for his follow up True Grit (1968). The novel was made into a film in 1970 starring the country singer Glen Campbell and Kim Darby, who also starred in the film version of True Grit. Beautiful jacket design by Wayne Anderson. Exceptionally scarce.
