First Edition of the author's Pulitzer Prize- winning work. Octavo. Inscribed by the author. Light wear to the extremities, else near fine in a very good plus first issue dust jacket. Basis for the 1949 film starring Broderick Crawford and the 2006 remake with Sean Penn, Jude Law and Kate Winslet. Named by Modern Library as one the 100 great novels of the twentieth century.
The New Republic has called it "[m]uch more than a 'hot book.' It is splendid reading...of enormous value....A very human story." But it is also "[a] fast-moving mystery, a whodunit written with ease.... A remarkable book (The New York Times). The Denver Post is right when it said All the King's Men is "fascinating, stimulating....One of the greatest detective stories ever told." It is "an authentic thriller" (Dan Rather) that Publisher's Weekly has described as [e]xhilarating and candid...trip-hammer reportage.
