Cronin, A.J. THE KEYS OF THE KINGDOM Boston: Little, Brown and Company, 1941. First edition, first printing. A bright, fresh, brilliant, fine copy in black cloth with gilt lettering and gilt panels; in a dust jacket that shows some edgewear, a few quite short edge tears with accompanying mild creasing, age-toning, mild crease to rear flap. Classic novel of a Scots priest who labors for 35 years to maintain a mission in a Chinese village, facing famine, indifference, plague, bandits and civil war. Memorably filmed in 1944 from a screenplay co-written by Cronin, starring Gregory Peck. Price: 125.00 USD
