FIRST EDITION, SIGNED BY FORESTER on the half-title. Forester's novel was made into a 1951 classic movie starring Humphrey Bogart as Charlie Allnut, a gin-drinking river trader, and Katherine Hepburn as Rose Sayer, a prim missionary, who endure adventure and each other as they sail down a river in Central Africa aboard Allnut's unremarkable boat called The African Queen.
