Description: This listing is for a very nice and rare book: BACK TO MANDALAY It is from 1951. The condition is very nice showing some signs of age. There is a dust jacket, however it is in bad condition What makes this book so rare and interesting is that it is signed by the Author and Illustrator, along with 2 other individuals who I believe are from the military. The inscriptions are to all: Colonel Alex P. Gates, who wrote his address in the book (6521 32nd Street N.W., Washington DC) The inscriptions are: Lowell Thomas (The Author) Milton Caniff (The Illustrator), who wrote: FOR COLONEL GATES - - FROM WHERE I SAT IT WAS EASY!MILTON CANIFF Unidentified - "John" ALEX - DON'T KNOW WHETHERTHIS TRIP WAS NECESSARYBUT WISH YOU HAD BEEN WITH US - JOHN Unidentified "Richard" TO ALEX MEETING JOHN THRUTHESE PAGES -AND YOU THRU JOHNMADE THE WAR WORTHWHILE.
