8vo - 23 x 15 cm.; xiii - 361 pp. Blue cloth over boards with gilt lettering on the spine. Mapped end papers. Illustrated with 36 black and white drawings by Astara Ali. From a review by Publisher's Weekly: ". . . in this quirky novel about Lucky the Indian, an Easterner comes to America to seek a new life and to find the mystical Seven Pearls of Wisdom. The zaniness begins almost at once . . . but the headliner is Petr the Pole, a cabbie whose sole mission is to glorify Poalnd . . ." Both the book and the unclipped dust jacket show a trace of wear to the spine tips.
