First Edition of the Re-Issue of John Steinbeck's Cup Of Gold
First edition of the 1936 re-issue of the author's first book. Octavo, original blue cloth. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Preface by Lewis Gannett. An exceptional example.
From the mid-1650s through the 1660s, Henry Morgan, a pirate and outlaw of legendary viciousness, ruled the Spanish Main. He ravaged the coasts of Cuba and America, striking terror wherever he went. Morgan was obsessive. He had two driving ambitions: to possess the beautiful woman called La Santa Roja and to conquer Panama, the "cup of gold." Steinbeck’s first novel and sole work of historical fiction.
