STGOBA33<p><strong>New York: Robert O. Ballou 1933</strong></p><p>First edition. First printing. An all but fine copy with some sunning to the cloth along the spine.

In a near fine dust jacket. The jacket spine with toned lettering and a tiny nick at the base. Some foxing to the rear panel and and the verso. Bright and vivid still and wholly unrestored. A beautiful example of Steinbeck's third novel his most challenging and time consuming to complete.

While fulfilling his dead father's dream of creating a prosperous farm in California Joseph Wayne comes to believe that a magnificent tree on the farm embodies his father's spirit. His brothers and their families share in Joseph's prosperity and the farm flourishes-until one brother frightened by Joseph's pagan belief kills the tree allowing disease and famine to descend on the farm.
