Austin: Encino Press, 1968. xviii,177pp. Tan paper over boards with tan suede spine. First edition, limited edition of 250 numbered copies. SIGNED. Tiny spot on the front cover, else, a fine copy. Light scattered foxing to the slipcase, overall, near fine. Dykes, My Dobie Collection p.11: “There is much on Dobie (Bedichek and Webb) in the essay Southwestern Literature” Dykes ranks this book number 28 on his rarities list. Whaley, Wittliff 38: “McMurtry’s book is indispensable to anyone who wishes to gain an objective view or who welcomes a challenge to his own predilections.” The publication of this book created great controversy in southwestern literary circles. A very nice copy.
