From the dust jacket: "The Moon is Down continues the experiment begun with Of Mice and Men, that of writing a short novel having the time and place disciplines of the stage. The scene of the book is any conquered country in any time. The author has purposely refrained from making it literally true to actual events. Although the weapons and ideologies may be of the present, they are only vehicles for the theme that a free brave people is unconquerable."

The front blank end paper has been removed. Nice pages - lightly age-toned but clean with no writing or tears found; the lower-inner corners of a few pages at the front have a small, light stain.no other stains found; some very light foxing to the first few pages.
