Title: john sreinbeck's " The Red Pony"
Review: The book includes four short stories about a boy growing up on a ranch in the Salinas Valley during the 1920s and is truly representative of Steinbeck's early writing, with his coarse, sometimes remorseful and uncmoplicated style clearly on display for the reader's pleasure. The physical condition of the book was somewhat disappointing because it was delivered without the the illustarated cover shown in the adverisement picture and the promised collector's case. If the purchase price had been higher I would have returned the book, but since it was intended as a gift, I gave my original copy away, and kept this copy for my library. In the future if the book is not sold by Amazon directly, I will not buy it!
