The Garden of Eden

Ernest Hemingway · Charles Scribner's Sons, New York · 1986

Documented and common: the Book-of-the-Month Club main selection of this title was supplied from Scribner's fourth printing of July 1986 and carries the "First Edition" slug together with the added line "Fourth Printing July, 1986". This is the single most frequent misidentification for the book — buyers see the slug and stop reading. Later Scribner trade printings behave the same way, retaining the slug and adding a printing line.
