First edition of the author's first book. Octavo, original black cloth. Signed by both John McPhee and the subject, Bill Bradley on the title page. Some offsetting to the front endpage, else near fine in an excellent dust jacket that shows some of the usual sunning to the spine.
First published in 1965, A Sense of Where You Are is the literary equivalent of a harmonic convergence, a remarkable confluence of two talents--John McPhee and Bill Bradley--at the beginning of what would prove to be long and distinguished careers. "Immensely well-written, inspiring without being preachy, and contains as well the clearest analyses of Bradley’s moves, fakes, and shots that have appeared in print" (The New York Times Book Review).
