Hargrove Marion; Anderson Maxwell Foreword by
See Here Private Hargrove
New York NY: Henry Holt And Co. Near Fine in Fair dust jacket. 1942. Hardcover. Private Marion Hargrove approaches life from a number of angles peculiarly his own. He approached the United States Army in the same way. Sergeants who served over Hargrove testify in the pages of this book about what happened to him and to the Army when he joined in response to a letter from Washington which began "The President of the United States to Marion Hargrove. Greetings. . . " As the delighted reader begins to discover the Army through Hargrove's eyes and Hargrove through the Army's one realizes that there is after all a certain amount of excuse for sergeants. With high good humor and a zest for the experience as a whole here is written something different from any previous writing about the military life. The front top corner is lightly worn and a prior owner's name is written on the ffep and title page. The jacket is missing a 1" x 2" area at the top corner a 1/2" x 1/2" area at the bottom left and pieces of the top and bottom spine. A 1/4" x 1" piece is missing from the bottom front and all corners are quite worn jacket . The front flap has a flower sticker on it where the price might have been - it has been clipped. Most interesting is a message from the author on the back encouraging readers to buy war stamps and bonds. Jacket is in a protective cover.; 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall . Henry Holt And Co. hardcover

The Astonishing World: Essays
New York New York U.S.A.: Ticknor & Fields 1992. Book. Fine. Hardcover. Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Number line: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 285 pages. Tight spine clean pages. A collection of essays exploring the world takes readers from Bensonhurst to Budapest to Morocco to the Roman flat of Gore Vidal and introduces them to such figures as Oprah Winfrey and Mario Cuomo. By the author of Italian Days. From Publishers Weekly Harrison is among our most eloquent journalists and if there is one characteristic that informs this collection of essays and stories most of which appeared previously in Partisan Review the New York Times Commonweal and other journals it is a lyrically exclamatory love of life. It shines through her superb travel sketches of her beloved Italy Morocco and parts of Eastern Europe before the recent upheavals. That quality explains why she is clearly puzzled and disconcerted in her interview with Gore Vidal who seems for all his intelligence a mere husk of a person in his responses to the sunlit world outside his Roman windows; why she cannot relate to the stultifyingly lifeless person that once-exquisite young gymnast Nadia Comaneci has become; and why too she is so enchanted with the unquenchable curosity self-questioning and eloquence of New York governor Mario Cuomo. Harrison is excellent on a horrific sect that invades a town in Maine she reminds us that her mother was a religious cultist and wryly allows the promoters of a "miracle" shrine in Yugoslavia to metaphorically impale themselves. Only the few and brief short stories dim reflections of the vibrant essays are disappointments in this exhilarating often moving collection. Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information Inc. From Library Journal In this collection of essays Harrison author of Italian Days Grove Weidenfeld 1989 explores such disparate yet compelling subjects as Morocco Tuscany Nadia Comaneci Mario Cuomo and race relations in Bensonhurst. The sensuous details of her travel pieces entice readers to wander off to sample the exotic delights of North Africa and Europe especially the newly liberated Balkans. In her personal sketches she becomes the journalist questioning and probing for the hidden thoughts and ambitions of her subjects. One chilling piece even calls attention to child abuse in a Vermont-based religious cult. Only when she writes about Cuomo does Harrison abandon her objectivity and let her admiration for the governor take over. Nevertheless these timely and penetrating gems provide entertaining and informational reading. Recommended for all libraries. - Nancy R. Ives SUNY at Geneseo Size: 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall.
