Octavo. Navy blue cloth covered boards with fading silver lettering along the spine and silver illustration of tall grasses likewise faded at blade tips. Some tiny scattered white spots scattered lightly across boards. Random House colophon stamped in red bottom textblock edge. Nice maps in black on green & white front and rear end pages. Front: map of The Choptank area. Rear: map of The Chesapeake Bay Region. Stated, 'First Edition' with this number line: 2 4 6 8 9 7 5 3. I assume this means this is a 2nd printing, but I am not certain because RH has changed how it applies the number string. In maroon paper wrapped slipcase of heavy cardstock. Horizontal wrap-around plate with Presentation Copy printed on spine side, geese in flight over sunrise over Atlantic ocean rear panel. What I assume to be Michener facsimile signature on front panel. [865 pp.]
