A vintage 1951 first printing of Return to Paradise by Pulitzer Prize-winning author James A. Michener, published by Random House.
A companion to Michener’s Tales of the South Pacific, the book returns to the islands of the South Pacific through a collection of interconnected stories and essays—a wonderful piece of midcentury literary history.
This copy is especially lovely displayed, with its beautifully aged green-and-cream spine lending itself perfectly to a collected bookshelf, tabletop, or layered vignette.
The cover shows wear consistent with age, while the book remains tightly bound and in very good overall vintage condition.
