What Makes Sammy Run?

First edition. Octavo, original cloth. Lengthily inscribed and dated by the author who has added the last lines of this classic novel as follows, "It was a terrifying and wonderful document, the record of where Sammy ran, and if you looked behind the picture, and between the lines you might even discover what made him run, Budd Schulberg." Fine in a near fine jacket with some professional restoration. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. A wonderful inscription.
