Advance Uncorrected Proof of There and Back Again: An Actor’s Tale, the memoir of actor Sean Astin, known for his role as Samwise Gamgee in the acclaimed The Lord of the Rings film trilogy. Written with Joe Layden and issued by St. Martin’s Press ahead of the book’s October 2004 release.

The copyright page states First Edition: October 2004 and has the number line 10 through 1; ISBN 0-312-33146-0. The unfinished foreword page is headed FOREWORD—TK and otherwise blank. The rear wrapper advertises the forthcoming book at $24.95, with a seven-city author tour and national publicity campaign. The eight-page colour photo insert is present in this copy.

Illustrated paper wrappers with rubbing, scratches, edge wear and corner creasing. The pale rear cover shows handling marks and mild soiling, and there are scattered marks on the page edges. The photographed text pages appear generally clean. The text is shown continuing to page 308; no claim of complete collation is made. The front wrapper carries a yellow “Advance Uncorrected Proofs” panel.
