There's also a little rubbing at the juncture between the spine and rear cover just off the top edge. The color of the spine is also faded somewhat. On the front cover there's a tear and light crease off the bottom edge and there is a small tear off the top edge as well. Just off the top edge there are a few scuffs.

I've had it in a fitted protective cover for as long as I've owned the book which goes back a good number of years. Rinehart & Company, New York, 1947. Hardcover in Dust Jacket. A very rare Rinehart First Edition (Rinehart & Company colophon on the copyright page).From the New York Times Book Review: "Whatever D.E. Stevenson puts her fictional hand to, has certain ineradicable, sure qualities. Humor, lightness of touch, the ability to plot an enthralling story in fascinating surroundings and to create characters that appeal, convincingly, both to head and heart."Ms. Stevenson's father, David Alan Stevenson, a lighthouse engineer who built twenty six lighthouses in and around Scotland, was a first cousin to Robert Louis Stevenson.D.E. Stevenson's novels were best-sellers, with more than seven million copies printed and translations in multiple languages. Her last book was published in 1969.
