Description: -- -- -- + + + -- -- -- Lot of 16 trade paperbacks by John McPhee. This is a massive collection that spans his entire career. About half of the books are in good condition, showing reading wear and typical signs of age. The other half are in very good shape, with just minimal wear. All have the same cover design except for two earlier editions, which also have the most wear. One title is from a Canadian publisher - though the cover design is the same as the American versions. It took me a while to assemble this collection and hope the next owner enjoys them as much as I have.
