Assume the first is the US and the second the UK's ISBN? A very reasonable copy of this classic of this genre.Author's 1st novel. Even prior to publication,it had earned $1,000,000 (US) in paperback and film rights.The 1st UK edn published same year,
but after it's issue by KNOPF,USA.Is now an increasingly RARE book in its own right.Apart from the comparatively small print run of any unestablished author's first book,the scarcity of this British edn,is accentuated by the diffulculty to locate,and afford,the US 1st edn.
