[Rarebooks] FS: John Irving's FIrst Book, SETTING FREE THE BEARS

[Charles Agvent]

IRVING, John. SETTING FREE THE BEARS. New York: Random House, (1968). 
First Edition. Irving's scarce first book, this the issue in red 
cloth-backed boards. There was also an issue in full red cloth with the 
text bulking slightly smaller. No priority has been proven, though the 
number of cloth-backed copies seems to outnumber greatly the number in 
full cloth. Near Fine in a Near Fine dustwrapper. (#017404)        $800
