This book is titled ''A Bell for Adano'', authored by John Hersey.  It is published by Franklin Library, part of the series: Pulitzer Prize Classics.  It was published in 1978. This book is Fine, or a book that approaches the condition of As New, but without being crisp.  There are none but the slightest of defects. There is no owner's plate attached, nor any owner's mark of any kind. Covers are in mint condition, with no signs of wear at all.  No nicks or scratches to the leather, and no scuffing to the gilded artwork and lettering.  Will display perfectly on your bookshelf. The page block gold gilding is nearly perfect, with only slight imperfections to the gilt; see picture. The spine appears perfect.  In fact, the book appears to have never been read, as the cover opens with resistance as if the book were new. Silk end papers show slight haloing--or fading around the edges--from age.
