The Devil 
New York, 1926
 
A semi-autobiographical work based on Leo's own sexual temptations.
 
First American edition. The book has a touch of lean, general dustiness to the edges, and a Shroud of Turin offsetting effect from the jacket on the front cover, else Very Good. The unclipped jacket is rare - a scuff mark to the cover and minor miscellaneous wear, else Near Fine. The jacket art is super compelling. A nice example of a rare book.
 
“He thought it so scandalous, in fact, that he hid the manuscript in the upholstery of a chair in his office so his wife wouldn’t find it, and he would never allow it to be published in his lifetime.” (MH Books)
