The Erotic Voyage of the Olympia Press and its Writers
John De St. Jorre
1994 American Edition (originally ON THE GOOD SHIP VENUS in UK)

An enthralling and enjoyable book detailing the birth of the Obelisk Press, the Olympia Press (in all its many incarnations) and the further exploits of Maurice Girodias, its fearless publisher.
A charming and well-researched study of 20th century independent book-making.
NEAR FINE/ NEAR FINE
Smooth dust jacket has minor rubbing and a stray pen-mark, boards have minor shelf-wear soil to top edges.  Book itself is just fine, with the exception of a faint remainder mark on the top edge.
A very nice copy of this excellent book.
