Dickey also wrote the screenplay for (and has a small part in) the memorable John Boorman film with Jon Voight, Burt Reynolds, Ned Beatty, and Ronny Cox (the latter two in their film debuts). - Four friends decide to get away from their jobs, wives and kids for a week of canoeing in rural Georgia. When the men arrive, they are not welcomed by the backwoods locals, who stalk the vacationers and savagely attack them in the woods.

Number 42 in the Modern Library Top One Hundred Novels of the 20th Century. Collectible copy! This is NOT an ex-Library or Remainder copy! A NEAR FINE book in a VERY GOOD- Jacket. Book appears carefully read once. Text block is compact and square. Light soil, normal signs of handling/ shelf wear to edges/tips (see photos). NO writing, remainders, inscriptions, underlining etc... decent looking book, just not quite crisp enough to grade higher. Dust jacket presents well in Mylar cover and is better than average condition for this title, but has rub/wrinkle/nips to edges/folds (see pics). Neatly price-clipped on the front flap of the dj. PROPER 1st Printing jacket with 6-84530 code to bottom right corner of rear cover. Later printings and club editions have a different code.

Obviously, my U.S. shipping charges will not apply to international bidders; Items ship AS IS and ALL customs forms are filled out fully/properly. BIDDERS, PLEASE NOTE: All images taken with a digital camera. I DO NOT use a scanner and any images of interior pages are taken carefully (The book is not flattened down to take images). Also I use a flash so some of the white "Hot" spots on the top and bottom of Books or along folds are caused by the flash and the reflection from the Mylar protector.
