About This Item
This was the FIRST authorized Signed Edition. I saw 2 earlier copies with the grayish cardboard box(no markings) they came in(like 25 years ago). This one has no box. They did not come with dustjackets either.
I have other signed Michener titles as well as another of these(I think). I should ask for more but then it might not belong to you.
Synopsis
Tales of the South Pacific is a Pulitzer Prize winning collection of sequentially related short stories about World War II, written by James A. Michener in 1946. The stories were based on observations and anecdotes he collected while stationed as a lieutenant commander in the US Navy on the island of Espiritu Santo in the New Hebrides Islands (now known as Vanuatu). The skipper of PT-105 met Michener while stationed at the PT boat base on Tulagi in the Solomon Islands.
