Seller's Description:
Small 4to. Red cloth with gilt spine lettering, pictorial dust jacket. 505pp. Very good/very good. Minor jacket edgewear and age toning. Tight and attractive first edition of this historical fiction--with lovely autograph addition: Tipped to inner flyleaf is a Typed Letter Signed from Zara, 5½" X 8½", Chicago, IL, 6 August 1941. Addressed to Lincoln/Civil War scholar Arnold F. Gates (1914-93). Near fine. On imprinted letterhead, Zara thanks his admirer for sending copies of two Lincoln-related pamphlets he'd published, asking: "I am curious about these booklets. Do you print these yourself, and how do you distribute them? I hope the contact with Morrow will do you some good. I am always glad to help where I can...." Of his next book, he notes: "I am working on the revision of my book and alas! no good clinching title has come as yet: usually my wife picks one almost from the first chapter." Presumably he refers to his 1943 release "Against This Rock." He goes on: "I saw in the press that Louis Bromfield had been in and out of the city of Chicago a number of times. Recalling how enthusiastic you were about him, I wrote him a note asking him to give me a call when he came through next. He said he would." Boldly signed in black ink at the close. Zara (1910-2001) was a New York book and magazine editor and publisher who authored a handful of novels, mainly historical fiction and fictionalized biographies such as this one and others on Philip II of Spain and Herman Melville.
