Was his story fabricated? It hardly matters, since it retains its fascination [Quercus offers Werner Herzog's film for further research]. This is a Very Good copy of the First American Edition. Uncommon to scarce. Translation by Caroline Newton. Gray/tan cloth binding with titling and spine decorations in black and gray. Clean text; xxvi, 467 pages; blue topstain.
