Seller's Description:
Very Good Plus. This nice copy of the First Printing is from the library of David Herbert Donald. Donald won a Pulitzer Prize for his biography of Thomas Wolfe, Look HOMEWARD. It was his second Pulitzer--the first was for his biography of Charles Sumner. Of course, Donald was also a celebrated biographer of Abraham Lincoln. Donald has made a few marks neatly in pencil in the text of this copy. Mabel Wolfe Wheaton was Thomas Wolfe's sister. Before her death in 1958 she wrote her story of the family history in order to show how much of her brother's story of the family in his fiction was misleading. Legette Blythe, a friend of the family, used Mabel's manuscript, her notes and recordings on conversations with Mable, and her own knowledge of the family to produce this book. Illustrated with the family's photos. The flap of the dust jacket is price clipped. The dust jacket is protected with a mylar cover.
