By Jane Jacobs
New York: Random House, 1961. Boards. Near Fine/Near Fine. The 1961 stated 1st printing of this magnum opus of author and activist Jane Jacobs (1916-2006). A very impressive copy to boot. Clean and Near Fine in a crisp, Near Fine dustjacket, with just the slightest hint of light creasing along the top-edges. Thick octavo, the book which thrust Jane Jacobs onto the front lines of controversy in the worlds of city planning and municipal redevelopment and economics.
