Hi everyone. I am new to book collecting - well, hardbacks anyway. I found what I think is a 1st Edition of a book called Safe House by Andrew Vachss. Published by Knopf. At the bottom of the copywrite page it says "First Edition". There is a price on the inside of the dust jacket and no...

I went to look up a book to see what it was going for (or what was being asked for it, anyway), and read this description on one site: "ISBN: 0345369378 Publisher: Westminster, Maryland, U.S.A.
