A mining engineer in pursuit of mineral wealth in Norway will commit "every known crime" in order to achieve his goal. In the process he'll also manage to throw away the love of a good woman (makes sense, really, since it's easier to get another good woman than it is to unearth deposits of valuable minerals -- especially if all the good women in question already know that his bank account is stuffed). 192 pages. Moderately cocked, light edgewear, tiny bit of chipping to spine ends, faint, full-length vertical crease to front cover, moderately sunned spine w/small splash-stain, tanning. A fairly nice copy of an uncommon edition.
