Description
Walter M. Miller, Jr. A Canticle for Leibowitz. Philadelphia & New York: J. B. Lippincott Company, 1960.Third impression. Octavo. 320 pages.
Publisher's blue cloth covers with the spine lettered in gilt. Illustrated second printing dust jacket designed by George Sottung. Very minor rubbing to the covers, slight sunning to the spine of the jacket. Altogether a near fine copy.
This work, which won the distinguished Hugo Award in 1961, was the only novel published by Michael Miller, Jr. (January 23, 1923 - January 9, 1996), as he focused his career upon short stories rather than novels. The immediate popularity of this work, originally published in 1960, created the need for two reprints, and thus three impressions, in same year of publication, of which this work is a result.
