Description: For Sale: The Best of Clarence Day by Clarence Day, A Borzoi Book, Published by Alfred A. Knopf, 1948. This is the First Edition of this Collection, which includes God And My Father, Life With Father, Life With Mother, This Simian World, and selections from Thoughts Without Words. This is a previously owned hard back book in good condition, showing wear at the top and bottom of spine, spotting and discoloration on cover, first and last couple of pages, and outside of closed pages from weather and age. The inside pages are clean, tight and intact with the exception of a 3/8" brown spot on pages 10 and 11. The first page has a previous owner's name and the date April, 1948 written in blue ink. There is no dust jacket included. I have hundreds of books that have been handed down through generations, plus recent books. Some are in great condition, some showing much use and some damage. A lot of the books came from homes, bay houses or beach houses along the Gulf Coast, back before air conditioning, where there is high humidity and severe weather at times. Especially some of the older books from the early 1900's. We were taught that books are very valuable and should never be destroyed as long as they are still readable.
