Description:
Tight, square spine has some sunning and a very small area of soiling. Former owner name to the half-title, but interior is else clean and unmarked. Light wear to the covers, including some bumped/creased corners, but book is in nice shape overall. Intro by Robert D. Lundy. Designer Ernst Reichl, active from the 1930s through the 1970s, was known for his 'whole book' approach, wherein a unifying design vision takes into consideration typesetting, binding, paper quality, and cover design. He's most famous for Random House's 1934 edition of Ulysses, with its influential Mondrian-esque cover and Weiss-caps title spread. Here, The Octopus, the first book in Norris's uncompleted The Epic of the Wheat trilogy, boasts a cover with color-blocked, torn-edge collage and a lovely modernist interior, with chapter headings and folios in Futura, a treatment typical of the titles Reichl designed for Sagamore's American Century Series, which highlighted works by muckrakers and Progressive Era novelists critical of…

Description:
Tight, square, uncreased spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Some light edge-wear and a severely bumped corner at the back fore-edge foot, but no other notable shelf-wear. Dedicated to the victims of both the Kent State and Jackson State killings of May 1970, this book juxtaposes photo-reproductions of Frasconi's woodcuts with haunting excerpts from Melville's poetry selected and arranged by the printmaker. Its title is taken from a poem Melville wrote during the bloodiest final battles of the Civil War, and there is a Dickinsonian emphasis here on the strictures—as well as, appropriately enough, the rhythms—of time: 'Dust to dust, and blood for blood— / Passion and pangs! Has Time / Gone back? or is this the Age / Of the world's great Prime?' Frasconi, who often carved blocks from the driftwood found on the beach in front of his home, said, 'Sometimes the wood gives you a break, and matches your conception of the way it is grained. But often you must surrender to the grain, find the movement of…

Nice, clean text block. There are two former owner inscriptions written on front flyleaf. Some minor shelf-wear and chips in dust jacket. 224 pp.; 22 cm. A hard-to-find but formative work of media studies. The 'tactical assault upon our consciousness' discussed here has only grown more pernicious since this book was published, despite the facade of democratization. Dated jargon aside, it still rings true: '...the American system has imposed its own totalitarianism, its own domination of reality. ' Cheeky jacket illustration by Don Longabucco. 224 pp.

Description:
Tight, square spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Very light shelf-wear. In December 1972, the world saw itself for the first time, after NASA released its Blue Marble photo; Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth portends this image and the identity crisis it caused, offering key insight into the piratical nature of geopolitical history and the destructive effects of increased professional specialization. This uncredited cover illustration references M. C. Escher's drawing, Bond of Union, in its depiction of a mind being blown—or a blue marble coming apart at the seams. 127 pp. Featured Rare & Collectible.
