About This Item
Macmillan Company, 1954. first edition. hardcover. very good: some age wear to edges of boards, slightly bumped, toning and offset to paste downs and endpapers, text clean, binding tight./good: some corner wear, rubbing, clipped but price visible ($3.00). Arthur C. Collins. 8vo 175pp. from front flap: In the words of the author: "This book is a bit of a fraud. That is, it's a collection of pieces from a newspaper. Of course, the author doesn't, at heart, think it's a fraud: he just says that because he's the victim of a modern literary fallacy that anything that's been in a newspaper is just a block of words made up to go on the other side of the advertisements. Actually, the essay is as valid an art form as any other--even the humorous essay." #00910.
