First edition of Pat Franks second novel An Affair of the State; lengthily inscribed by him
First edition of Frank's classic Cold War political thriller, inspired in part by his experiences as an international journalist. Octavo, original cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed on the front free paper, "For Betty Wells - In the hope that some part of this book comes true. Pat Frank." Very good in a very good dust jacket. Signed examples are uncommon.
Pat Frank furnishes a full load of excitement, satire, and laughs in this, his second novel, of cloak-and-dagger adventure and high-voltage romance, this time set in the super-charged atmosphere of Washington and Budapest. As in Mr. Adams, he gives a frightening authenticity of period and place to the story of a good guy who became entangled in love and in top international intrigues.
