"Just two months before John Lennon was shot on December 8, 1980, he and his wife, Yoko Ono, had completed what would become the most exhaustive and thorough interview sessions of his life. The couple had been retired from public life for five years, and had reemerged in a burst of creativity to record some new music - and with much to say. It was during these long sessions with Playboy interviewer David Sheff that Lennon decided to review his personal and professional life in full - often movingly, sometimes bitingly, and always honestly. The magazine version of the interviews was on the newstands as the tragedy took place in the archway of the Lennons' apartment building. Playboy's twenty million readers therefore had the inteview in their hands when the news was announced and durring the days of vigil and remembrance that followed. As Los Angeles Times art editor Charles Champlin would later write, "David Sheff's sympathetic questions evoked so much of the Beatle past and of Lennon's intellectual past and present and future plans that the interview would hardly have been less engrossing and important even if it were not illuminated by tragedy." But even though Playboy's interviews are noted for their length, only a portion of the over twenty hours of conversation could be published that month. There remained many more hours of unpullished thoughts, memories, and insights from th brilliant mind that helped to shape a generation. These have now been transcribed and integrated into the original magazine interview to provide readers with what is undoubedly the autobiography Lennon would never write. Those close to Lennon called th magazine interview his "final testament," so this book represents perhaps the "complete testament," as nearly two-thirds of the material here has never been published before. In his own words, Lennon thrashes out his feelings about the Beatles, recalls the insanity of sex and drugs and hero worship during the Sixties, becomes lyrical about the love and tranquility of his family life, triggers his own choked memories of his mother and his childhood, analyzes the excitement about the future and a life that "begins at forty," and, for the first time, comments on virtually every song he wrote with and without Paul McCartney. Throughout, Yoko Ono also speaks movingly about what it was like to be the one accused of breaking up the Beatles, about her own life and work since, and about the rigors of being married to a legend. For those who loved John Lennon, and for those curious about his life and his art, this is the one, indispensable source book." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

"The focal point of this magnificent novel is Makor, a site in Israel known in modern times as Tell Makor - a name signifying that this is not a natural mound "but the patiently accumulated residue of one abandoned settlement after another, each resting upon the ruins of its predecessor, reaching endlessly back into history." The framework for the narrative is provided by the archaeologists who come to excavate Makor, uncovering objects whiich identify, level by level, the various periods of human occupancy that have come and gone since the first men arrived here. The expedition is fascinating in itself, but the main body of the novel is the story of Makor, in its various aspects through the ages. The archaeologists can only date and classify and make expert generalizations about most of the artifacts they dig up, but Mr. Michener, exercising the pregogative of a master storyteller, is not thus limited. By presenting believable characters in dramatic situations that are true to the times that produced them, he vividly re-creates the life in and around Makor in crucial periods of its existence, from twelve thousand years ago, through the coming and going of many conquerors - Canaanite, Hebrew, Egyptian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Persian, Greek, Roman, Arab, Crusader, Mameluke. Turkish and British - down to the heroic days when the modern state of Israel was established. Makor, like its inhabitants, is fictional, but it is founded solidly on historical research and facts established by the exploration of many actual sites in Israel. What happened at Makor is the history of the Holy Land itself, and what happened in the Holy Land is intimately bound up with the development of western civilization. Here was the source of the great religious ideas that have shaped our thought, and here every great empire that has dominated the west has left its mark. Thus The Source is the story of our universal heritage from the past - a story not only of human greed, bigotry and cruelty, but of human striving for law and justice, love and faith. It is a book to ponder as well as to enjoy; it should and will be widely read in many languages by people of many creeds." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. Stated First Printing. 'Two hundred copies have been printed on special paper and specially bound. Each copy is signed by the author and numbered.' Below Herbert Hoover's signature the number 176 is written (see photo). There are only a few other copies of this signed limited edition for sale on the Internet. You can see the blue covers of my copy in the photos. They are exceptionally clean. The gilt lettering on the front and spine is nicely bright. Exposure to the sun has changed the color on the spine from blue to a light green (the only reason the book is not rated Fine). There isn't any other wear on the covers. The spine ends are in very good shape. The cover edges and corners look very good, no rubbing at all. The color of the cover edges and corners is identical to that of the front and rear covers, in other words there is no toning. The top page edge is a light blue. It looks very good, very clean. The white middle and bottom page edges are also perfectly clean. The book is square and the spine looks straight. The binding is very solid from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. The interior of the book is in top-notch condition. The inside covers and end papers are a light blue. They are perfectly clean and free of any wear. The same can be said for all of the pages in the book. They are perfectly clean. There isn't any creasing. The corners, top and bottom, on all the pages, look terrific. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And the only writing is the former President's signature, along with the number 176. If you have taken notice of the large discount ($300.00) relative to the least expensive of the few other signed limited editions, the reason is the color loss on the slipcase. It should be blue, not tan. Exposure to the sun is the obvious culprit. The slipcase is in very solid shape, no tears. There is a tiny spot off the top edge of the front and a very little and light one on the slipcase's top edge. The number 176 is also penned off the bottom edge of the rear cover of the slipcase. The gilt label on the front is in solid shape, just a few superficial scratches. The blue lettering looks very good. Designed by Tere LoPrete; Drawings by Bill Hofmann (ilustrador).
