44122 New York: Cosmopolitan Book Corporation, 1928. First US printing. Novel set in the near future, where a geologic catastrophe has caused most of the land in Europe and elsewhere to be flooded - however, a small section of the Cotswalds was uplifted and those living there face a fight for survival in a world they are totally unprepared for. A classic, and with today's global warming, one that might be even more relevant now than when it was written. 395 pp. Stylized art deco design on the endpapers. Very good in dark blue cloth (some spine slant), lacking the dj. HC 1st ed - $12.50USD
