Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. A big block of fine illustrations (illustrator). 1st Edition. "Brothers Down", Pearl Harbor and the Fate of the many Brothers Aboard the USS Arizona, by Walter R. Borneman. Copyright 2019 by the author. First Edition, Coded First Printing. NOT Ex-Library. Like New condition in a Like New dust jacket in white/gray/bright shiny carmine-colored, gilt-lettered hard boards, 9 1/2" x 6 1/4" x 337 clean pages of remarkable Naval history - the brothers allowed to serve together, against U. S. Navy regulations, aboard USS Arizona and who were aboard on December 7, 1941. A remarkable study. The Navy had regulations which were not honored - and if brothers asked to serve together they were allowed to do so - regulations were 'winked at'. If you saw Saving Private Ryan you saw reference to USS Astoria and the five Sullivan brothers. Brothers were banned from serving together from that time. Here is the story about all the sets of brothers aboard USS Arizona in 1941. No whitening, No mustiness, No looseness, No smoke smell. No names, No other markings, No bookplates, NOT Ex-Library, NOT Remainder-marked. An historic Pearl Harbor find.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 300 pages. Published in 1998. The author's seventh novel. Now considered a contemporary classic. The Signed First Edition of the First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. "Autographed Copy" sticker pasted on DJ cover. Presents George Pelecanos' "The Sweet Forever". One of his best outings. Pelecanos' novels are set in Washington, DC, prompting his most ardent followers to call him the Emile Zola of the nation's capital. The present narrative involves $25, 000 stolen from a drug dealer, several children in peril, smart adults who screw up their lives in stupid ways, and the speed with which violence festers and explodes in unexpected directions. "Pelecanos is that rare bird among Washington novelists, a writer who loves and knows the city he writes about" (Publishers Weekly). One of about five American thriller writers of our time who completely inhabit and transcend the genre at the same time. An absolute "must-have" title for George P. Pelecanos collectors. This Autographed Copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black pen on the publisher's tipped-in page by George P. Pelecanos. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few copies of the Signed First Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce signed copy thus.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 300 pages. Published in 2000. The author's eighth novel. One of George P. Pelecanos' finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents George Pelecanos' "Shame The Devil". Essential Pelecanos at his absolute best. Pelecanos' novels are set in Washington, DC, prompting his most ardent followers to call him the Emile Zola of the nation's capital. "We find a society of grieving men and women connected by loss, betrayal, the need for revenge, and the shadowy presence of evil. In the aftermath of a botched armed robbery, a fair number of lives have been thrown into a downward spiral. The problems, however, come on faster and with more fury once the status quo sustaining the survivors has been breached by an ill-wishing and unwanted addition to their little group. Here are two favorite moments: In one, protagonist Dimitri Karras asks the name of a fellow bar patron. Hearing that he's called Happy, Karras comments that he doesn't look too happy. The answer: 'He's pacing himself'. The other: We hear the thoughts of the sociopathic villain: 'Some believed that incarceration was a mark of failure, but Frank disagreed. Prison was an essential element of any career criminal's education' " (Otto Penzler). "Pelecanos is that rare bird among Washington novelists, a writer who loves and knows the city he writes about" (Publishers Weekly). One of about five American thriller writers of our time who completely inhabit and transcend the genre at the same time. An absolute "must-have" title for George P. Pelecanos collectors.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 210 pages. Published in 2003. Retrospective collection of short stories. One of Elizabeth Crane's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Elizabeth Crane's "When The Messenger Is Hot". In many ways, her best book. "Crane works on an intuitive plane as her funny, funky, wounded, but still swinging women protagonists struggle to survive in a cacophonous and aggressive world. Having kicked the alcohol habit, they have turned to caffeine with a vengeance, making for marvelously keyed-up and jittery narratives. Crane off-handedly toys with assumptions about reality as her characters change shape, indulge in elaborate fantasies, and even, slowly disappear. One narrator is certain that her mother has come back from the dead, another riffs hilariously on the complications of having a much younger lover, and yet another documents her experiences dating various men named Dave. Clever, inventive, and piquant, Crane's breathless stories hit the brain with more voltage than a double espresso" (Donna Seaman). An absolute "must-have" title for Elizabeth Crane collectors.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 257 pages. Published in 2004. The author's fifth collection of short stories and essays. Now considered a contemporary classic. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Features a stunningly beautiful DJ design by Chip Kidd. Presents David Sedaris' "Dress Your Family In Corduroy And Denim". The threshold of maturity as America's most pungent, most perceptive, and most popular social commentator and humorist. "Sedaris has a satirical brazenness that holds up next to Twain and Nathanael West" (The New Yorker Magazine). Once a cult figure, Sedaris now has broad mainstream appeal. The idea of civilized pleasure - especially, humor - should not just be valued but avidly pursued by all of us, if possible: Life-as-surplus, where the only life worth living is the useless and unnecessary life of leisure, which is also the theme of Woody Allen's great New York films, and in his more down-to-earth manner, is also the reason we like and love David Sedaris. Sedaris continues to use his utterly dysfunctional Greek-immigrant family as the basis for his work. An absolute "must-have" title for David Sedaris collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed and inscribed in black ink-pen on the title page by the author: "To Alan + Sue, David Sedaris". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The recipients, who are named, obtained the signature in person. It is also vividly imprinted by Sedaris with a red rubber stamp-greeting from Thailand, a brilliant Sedaris touch: He had just returned from Thailand and brought back with him the stamp. Sedaris used the latter occasionally and only for this title, making it vintage and special. This title is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed and stamped copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant American writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER DAVID SEDARIS TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0316143464. Signed by Author.

One of Tony Earley's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. "Autographed Copy" round white sticker pasted in front. Presents Tony Earley's "Mr. Tall: A Novella And Stories". Significanlty expands the author's already considerable range as principally a writer of compact fiction. Even his full-fledged novels, notably the "Jim" Series, are a lot shorter ("succinct") when compared to his peers' massive, unruly efforts. Which is genuine praise, not criticism, overwriting and overwrought prose being well-known American literary vices. "Jack And The Mad Dog", the concluding novella, is one of the outstanding American novellas of our time, worthy to rank alongside other celebrated masterpieces of the form yet remains underrated since its first appearance in published form in The New Yorker Magazine. Tony Earley's mastery of the English language, written to suit his singular purpose, is sublime, not just impressive. An absolute "must-have" title for Tony Earley collectors.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 198 pages. Published in 1994. The author's breakthrough debut collection of short stories. One of the most important literary debuts of the last decade of the 20th century. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Tony Earley's "Here We Are In Paradise: Stories". Published to enormous critical acclaim. It immediately established the author as one of the most accomplished writers of his generation. Eight pitch-perfect and perfectly crafted tales that "with quirky ruefulness, narrate the experiences of ordinary people who may or may not matter to anyone but themselves" (Publishers Weekly). "Charlotte" was selected as one of the "Best American Short Stories 1993". "My Father's Heart", the single best story in the collection, captures the complex and poignant feelings of a boy who knows his father only through the memories of others. As his debut novel, "Jim The Boy", shows, Earley's empathy for boyhood is profound and, as the glowing reviews indicate, worthy of comparison with J. D. Salinger's as well as Tobias Woolf's, in the way they capture a boy's "growing pains". His mastery of the English language is sublime, not just impressive.

Book First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 389 pages. Published in 2000. The author's breakthrough debut novel. Now considered a contemporary classic. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Peter Moore Smith's "Raveling". Unputdownable. "The novel's strength lies in the deftness with which Peter Moore Smith captures Pilot's schizophrenia. The reader follows Pilot in each unsteady attempt to negotiate the ever-fluctuating boundary between reality and illusion. Weaves the fragile threads that bind families and selves into a tapestry that both cloaks its characters and leaves them starkly vulnerable" (Kelly Flynn). "Eyes closed, I was in a bed upstairs, my arms under the covers so they wouldn't float away. Outside the window a single branch was reaching toward the room, unfurling itself to tap against the glass, warning me" (Peter Moore Smith). An absolute "must-have" title for Peter Moore Smith collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black pen-marker on the title page by Peter Moore Smith.
