Description:
Clean, unmarked interior. Spine has some creases and a slight cosmetic skew, but remains tight. Some light shelf-wear, including a small dent to the back cover. Cocaine smuggler David Lee Henry lives the fast life, as evidenced by the cover of this scarce edition, which pairs a comically seamy illustration with some classy Futura Black type. Hill not only called this book's hero David Lee Henry, but also used the name as a pseudonym when penning screenplays like Road House, Harry Tracy, and 8 Million Ways to Die. After King of White Lady was optioned, Roger Corman–mentee Monte Hellman was hired to adapt it for the screen in 1979, with Francis Ford Coppola slated to direct and produce; Coppola abandoned the project when he became distracted by the agonizing experience of shooting Apocalypse Now. 239 pp.
