Very Good in a Very Good+ dustjacket. Bound in full beige cloth. Both the spine and the front panel are stamped in blue. Octavo. 181pps. Fifth printing, September 1956 (following the first printing by 3 months). There are touches of dustspotting to the cloth, otherwise clean, tight, square, and bright. All tips are sharp. The text is immaculate; no apparent reading wear and no previous ownership markings. The dustjacket, glossy in a new mylar sleeve, has a slightly sundarkened spine, modest rubbing wear to the extremities, and a small closed tear at the top of the front panel. The original price is intact.
"...A young American engineer sent to China to inspect the unruly Yangtze River travels up through the river's gorges searching for dam sites. Pulled on a junk hauled by forty-odd trackers, he is carried, too, into the settled, ancient way of life of the people of the Yangtze -- until the interplay of his life with theirs comes to a dramatic climax..."
