1957 ATLAS SHRUGGED Ayn Rand First Edition: 24th Printing Hardcover Dust Jacket

1957 ATLAS SHRUGGED by Ayn Rand First Edition  24th Printing Hardcover with Dust Jacket. The dust jacket has wear around the edges, and the corners are slightly bumped. It has been placed in a clear archival sleeve for protection. There aren't any other obvious signs of highlighting, inscriptions, or dog-eared pages. The binding is sound.

This is a mystery story, not about the murder of a man's body, but about the murder-and rebirth-of man's spirit. Reviews of Atlas Shrugged in 1957 were not favourable, and its message united both left and right in condemnation. However, by the 1990s Atlas Shrugged was the most influential book in the United States next to the Holy Bible. If you are a collector of banned books, this is one you want on your library shelf.
