S. Van Dine is the Pseudonym of Willard Huntington Wright. This book is in Very Good- condition and is lacking the dust jacket. The book covers have bumping, rubbing and general wear and small bits of fraying. The covers have some ground-in dirt and spots of color loss, especially to the front cover. The lettering on the spine of the book is noticeably flaked - and some words are completely flaked away. The text pages are generally clean and bright. There is a previous owner's bookplate on the front pastedown (Marie Pepe) . The front endpaper has a penciled previous owner's name and there is an inch long red ink mark at the top corner. "It has long been a source of wonder to me why the leading criminological writers - men like Edmund Lester Pearson, H. B. Irving, Filson Young, Canon Brookes, William Bolitho, and Harold Eaton - have not devoted more space to the Greene tragedy; for here, surely, is one of the outstanding murder mysteries of modern times - a case practically unique in the annals of latter-day crime.". Very Good- .
