Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1982.

First edition of this classic work, basis for the film Field of Dreams starring Kevin Costner, which was later inducted into the National Film Registry. Octavo, original half cloth. Boldly signed on the title page by Bill Kinsella and by Academy Award-winning actor Kevin Costner below Kinsella’s. Fine in a near fine price-clipped dust jacket. Jacket design by Wendell Minor. Uncommon signed by both Kinsella and Costner.

"Kinsella is drunk on complementary elixirs, literature and baseball, and the cocktail he mixes of the two is a lyrical, seductive and altogether winning concoction" (New York Times). Basis for the 1989 film starring Kevin Costner, James Earl Jones and Burt Lancaster.
