197462875Berkeley CA: Samisdat Press 1974. First Edition. First Printing. Publisher's pale green wraps titled and decorated in black to spine and front board with a reproduction of the author's USMC telegram notifying his parents of him taking a shrapnel wound to the stomach to the rear wrap. A touch of fading here and there with soome very light shelfwear but a very good strong copy. 116pp. Internally clean. Signed by the author to the title page. One peculiarity is that the final leaf of the story "Diehard" has been typed manually and added to the volume at the rear where a printed leaf would belong with no sign of an "original" leaf being missing. Whether this was a later fix from a previous owner or something done in house due to a binding error is difficult to establish especially with "homemade" publishing. This is the first appearance of "A Few Good Men" a series of short vicious little war stories that are amongst the clearest invocations of the prevalent lunacy present in the canon. It was eventually reprinted in a book form in 1978 by Morrow/Avon this first appearance seems elusive especially signed. Samisdat Press unknown
