Condition & notes

In very good condition. Glossy illustrated paper covers have light bumping and creasing to edges and corners and light overall scuffing and aging. Spine lightly creased and faded, but binding is still nice and tight. Pages clean and unmarked. NOT Ex-Library. NO remainder marks. [From Foreword] WAR IS HELL!... and novels with a war backdrop can be dreary! Not so with "The Wild Blue Yonder." Rick Corbin's story, though filled with excitement, trial, and at times terror, is quite different. As the pages unfold it becomes clear that Rick is developing into a more complete person. War is turning a young man, originally unsure of himself, into a man able to withstand almost any trial and win. Can war be beneficial? "The Wild Blue Yonder" and Rick Corbin are a testimony to the character formation that takes place in this, the crudest crucible of all.
