Very nice copy of the very elusive hardcover first editon. Book is clean as a whistle inside and out. Only fault to book itself is former owner's name written small at upper right corner of half title page. Dustjacket is likewise nice and clean with just one small tear to upper rear edge. Has not been price-clipped and is most handsome in brand new mylar. Gorgeous, bright primitve art is perfect for this retelling of the Creation story of Adam and Eve with a gentler emphasis. The author is a well knonw expert in the field of mythology, particularly Celtic. A children's book for grownups too.
