I have a copy from my personal collection of Michael Shaara's "The Killer Angels"; the book the movie "Gettysburg" was based on. This is a First Edition, First Printing (1974) copy in very good / near fine condition in a nice very good, price clipped dust jacket. This early edition was printed with a "low cost" publisher and after winning the Pulitzer Prize went immediately into subsequent later printings. Typical of this publisher is the books can exhibit some slight "spine lean" which this copy has a hint of; plus a couple small page corner tip folds. No prior owner markings, bookplates, marginalia, etc. Nice clean covers with no corner bumping, etc. (PM me for any detailed condition clairifications or inquiries.)

Pristine strict fine / as new copies of this book are listed for $2,000 to $3,000, or more. This copy is valued between $750 to $1,250, or even more so, depending on market. (Search sites www.biblio.com or www.abebooks.com).

I will consider selling for $900 or trade value of $1,000 in trade / cash for a nice musket, pistol(s), or authentic clothing made for me, or (?), etc.

P.M. me of any interest.
