THE SHADOW ON THE SUN by Rosemary Harris (New York, New York): The Macmillan Company, (1970). First American edition, first printing. Second young adult book from the Carnegie-Medal-winning author of THE MOON IN THE CLOUD. Set in ancient Egypt, it is a tale of grand passions, deadly fevers, vile plots, and hair's breath rescues in which characters from her previous books appear. Nearly fine in terra-cotta linen with gilt embossed illustration of a boat to the front cover and with gilt embossed titles to the spine; in a price-clipped very good dust jacket that shows heavy rubbing to the front flap fold and to the spine folds, and with edge tears and attendant creases. A nicely presentable vintage collectible. FREE SHIPPING TO THE USA PLEASE VIEW OUR STORE FOR MORE GREAT FIRST EDITION BOOKS THANKS!
