Description: CHESAPEAKE One of James A. Michener's best-received novels, following the lives of several families over the course of four centuries in the Chesapeake Bay region. This copy is from the uncommon Presentation Edition, issued simultaneously with the first printing. This copy is signed by Michener on the half-title page, with a brief inscription to the former owner. Quite rare: this appears to be the only signed copy of the Presentation Edition currently for sale online. The book is housed in its original slipcase and remains in very good shape. The slipcase is sturdy and clean, with minor wear about the edges; the label has moderate rubbing, no chips or tears. The book itself is somewhat faded along the spine, otherwise in fine shape. Certainly an above-average copy of a fine collector's item. Hardcover, 5.75" X 8.5", 865 pages. Ships promptly & securely.
