Description: The is believed to be a second issue with a later dj with "City Boy" and mention of the Pulitzer Prize. but the position of the division between the white and gold background on the back of the dj is the same as for the first edition dj, ie central between the "E" in CAINE and the "M" in MUTINY, just to add to the confusion. As there is no date specified on the copyright page or any other indication as to when this edition was published I have assumed it would be 1952 but could be wrong.
