Description: THIS IS ANDRE NORTON'S 3RD BOOK AND A FIRST EDITION PUBLISHED IN 1942. VERY RARE, VERY HARD TO FIND BOOK. PUBLISHED BY WILLIAM PENN BOOKS. THIS BOOK APPEARED IN 1942 & PRE-DATES HER INCREDIBLE SCI-FI AND FANTASY WRITINGS. IT IS A HARDBACK BOOK, WITH A DUST JACKET WHICH IS RIPPED IN THE BACK PRIMARILY. I BOUGHT THIS BOOK SOMETIME IN THE MID 1970'S AT A USED BOOK STORE IN MARYLAND WHERE I GREW UP. ANDRE NORTON WAS ONE OF THE SEMINAL WRITERS I READ WHEN I WAS A KID IN THE EARLY 1960's. I LOVED HER BOOKS. STARMAN'S SON, DAYBREAK: 2250AD, TIME TRADER, ETC LAUNCHED ME ON MY LIFELONG SCI-FI READING ADDICTION. I HAVE MOST OF HER SCI-FI BOOKS, MANY OF WHICH SHE AUTOGRAPHED FOR ME THROUGH A FRIEND OF MINE WHO TOLD HER OF MY ANDRE NORTON BOOKS. SHE TOLD HIM TO SEND HER SOME OF MY BOOKS AND SHE WOULD AUTOGRAPH THEM FOR ME. SO I DID, AND SHE DID, AND I STILL HAVE THOSE BOOKS, THEY ARE SPECIAL TO ME. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY I DIDN'T SEND THIS ONE TO HER?? I DON'T KNOW IF I WANT TO SELL THEM. I AM ONLY 75, SO I WILL PROBABLY HOLD ONTO THEM FOR SOME MORE YEARS. THIS "FOLLOW THE DRUM" IS NOT AUTOGRAPHED. SO WHEN I FOUND THIS BOOK BACK IN THE 1970'S, I WAS FLABBERGASTED AND BOUGHT IT IN AN INSTANT. EARLIER IN THE 1960'S BEFORE I WENT IN THE ARMY, I FOUND AND BOUGHT A COPY OF ANOTHER EARLY BOOK OF HER'S CALLED, "SCARFACE". I STILL HAVE THAT TOO! I REMEMBER FINDING THIS BOOK WAS A MAJOR EVENT FOR ME. I HOPE WHOEVER BUYS IT WILL APPRECIATE IT TOO. SEE ABOVE FOR THE PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION. SEE MY PHOTOS FOR A GOOD VISUAL LOOK AT THE BOOK. I TAKE MANY PHOTOS SO YOU CAN SEE ALL ASPECTS OF THE BOOK. I PACK EXTREMELY WELL I MAKE SURE I PACKAGE SECURELY, JUST AS I WOULD WANT TO GET A BOOK IN THE MAIL. SEE MY FEEDBACKS ABOUT MY PACKING. I AM A RETIRED WIDOWER SELLING OFF THOUSANDS OF MY COLLECTIBLE BOOKS AND COMIC BOOKS THAT I HAVE ACCUMULATED SINCE 1959. I AM NOT A BUSINESS. WHAT I SELL ARE BOOKS I BOUGHT OVER THE YEARS FOR MY COLLECTION. AFTER I BOUGHT THEM, I TOOK VERY GOOD CARE OF THEM. UNLESS BOUGHT NEW, I CANNOT ATTEST TO THE CARE THE BOOKS GOT BEFORE I BOUGHT THEM. THE RIPPED DUST JACKET ON THIS ANDRE NORTON BOOK PRE-DATES MY OWNERSHIP OF THIS BOOK. NO SHIPPING CHARGED ON THIS BOOK. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN MY PERSONAL COLLECTIBLE BOOK COLLECTION, GOOD LUCK. GREENBEANY67.
