First edition 1952, published by The Falcon Press. The dust cover has some foxing, but is in good condition. The inside pages are neat and clean, and the binding sturdy. The prolific American writer Erskine Caldwell (1903-1987) was one of the best-selling authors of all time. His novels and stories are distinguished by their brutally realistic depiction of back-country life. The protagonist of this novel is Thede Emerson, the richest man in Clearwater, Maine, but he couldn't afford to lend his son $500 to go to Boston to study.
