First edition. A little rubbing along the edges of the boards, else a fine and bright copy in a fine example of the rare dust jacket with the slightest of age-toning and an old, faint pencil price on the spine. One of two novels written by Du Bois, this one about an African-American medical doctor who can't secure an internship because of his color. "In passionate revolt he flees from America. One day in Berlin. he meets the Dark Princess, an exquisite Indian woman of noble birth. Through her he is made aware of a movement among the dark races for self-expression and self-determination, and becomes involved in an adventure of such magnitude that it absorbs his energies on his return to America." Only the third jacketed copy we've seen in 40 years.
