Rediscover the locations and settings of Alfred Hitchcock’s most beloved films !

Footsteps in the fog:
Alfred Hitchcock’s San Francisco

Jeff Kraft and Aaron Leventhal

A later printing of this long oblong quarto trade paperback originally published in 2002. Normally a relatively inexpensive book, our copy is inscribed by Jeff Kraft, Patricia Hitchcock O’Connell, Hitch‘s daughter, and Tippi Hedren, star of The Birds.
Very fine, sans dust jacket, as issued. 
                                                                        $250.00


More on the movies, but a great book by itself

Cold Mountain
                                      
Charles Frazier   

The elusive first state of the first edition, with the proper points:
- "man-woman"  on page 25, line 16 
- John Berendt stickered quote on front panel of dust jacket.

Very good book in very good jacket with slight rubbing on front panel.
                                                                        $175.00


Out-of-Sight

The Vanishing American Outhouse

Ronald S. Barlow

This quarto-sized trade paperback has it all: plans for privies, photographs, poems, and even folklore. A true non-urban legend.
The only fly in this book's ointment is two Spring Mountain Ranch rubber stamps, one each on the inside of the front cover and the front free endpaper.
                                                                            $16.50
                                                                                

I hate him, but...


Men-of-War
Life in Nelson's Navy

Patrick O'Brian

One of our specialties is military fiction series - both the classic authors like C.S. Forester and Hans Helmut Kirst, and the newcomers Kent, Pope, and Feintuch. I absolutely hate Aubrey, Mathurin, and O'Brian, but not necessarily in that order.

A first American edition of this scarce hardbound. Near fine in a Near fine dustjacket.

                                                                            $25.00
We have the largest selection of signed books in the Las Vegas Valley. Two of the more interesting are

The 100 Classic Dishes of Austria

Ewald Plachutta & Christoph Wagner

Published in Vienna, 2003, this lovely book, issued without a dust jacket,  has one small dent and several slight scratches on the front cover. It is boldly inscribed on the half-title page by Chef Plachutta.
                                                                           $150.00



Caesar Chavez, Autobiography of La Causa.

Jacques Levy

A very good first edition of this extremely rare book in a good dustjacket with several small chips. This book is notable in that it is not signed by the author, but  is warmly inscribed by Caesar Chavez on the half-title page.

                                                                          $400.00
