JB14063 Delacorte Press New York, NY, U.S.A. 1975 First Printing Dust Jacket Good Hard Cover Near Fine Red marbled paper on boards, black cloth on spine. Jacket is lightly chipped on the spine ends, with a crease at the top of the spine. Now in clear cover. "This is an extraordinary documentary novel about a high government official of World War II who is destroyed by a conflict of conscience. William Bradford Huie has woven fact and faction together skillfully. He has produced a novel that sheds startling new light on the politics of the atom bomb and the high-level secrecy that gave us Watergate. Mr. Huie takes the reader from Southern mansion opulence, to Hyde Park secret enclaves, to the Los Alamos laboratories. He explores the finer points of man's fidelity to a higher purpose than his own small life. In so doing he has given us a book which is truly compelling - a story of our times." $17.50USD
