Malone, Dumas
Edwin A. Alderman A Biography WITH SIGNED LETTER BY DUMAS MALONE
New York: Doubleday Doran & Company Inc. 1930. First Edition First Printing . Hardcover. Good. 8vo. viii 392 pages indexed. Hardcover bound in red cloth. The binding is worn and bumped but sound. The lettering on the spine is faded. The text block is slightly slanted but the book easily stands upright on its own. A sound copy with secure inner hinges. Signed on the front pastedown by Thaddeus A. Abrams a lawyer from Charlotte North Carolina. The front flyleaf has biographical information about Dumas Malone copied from "Who's Who." Some foxing to the title page. The text shows some toning and occasional notations by Abrams. There are also some articles tipped in on various related topics. Tipped in at the rear of the books is the copy of a two page letter from Abrams to Malone dated June 26 1941 and a SIGNED typed letter from Dumas Malone to Abrams dated July 8 1941. The letter from Malone is on the stationary of "Harvard University Press - Cambridge - Massachusetts." Thaddeus Adams knew the subject of the biography UNC and UVA educator Edwin Anderson Alderman. Adams clearly read this book and made notations and his letter copied here on onion-skin paper with his own letterhead offers suggestions and observations on Alderman. Malone says in part "I daresay the book would have profited by some previous conversation or consultation with you. It was a great pleasure to work on it and i hope that I did a fair justice to the subject. "I was struck by the same thing that you were in the quotation which you partially reproduced. I did not have the faintest idea where El Ashar was but looked it up at the time and as best I remember found that it was in Cairo. It was quite characteristic of Alderman to make a reference like this and thus to impress his hearers. This sort of foilble those who knew him were quite ready to forgive and chuckle over." Adams notes in his own letter that he entered UNC-Chapel Hill in 1898 while Dr. Alderman was president. Edwin A. Alderman 1861-1931 graduated from UNC himself in 1882. He was president of UNC from 1896 to 1900. He was then the president of Tulane University in New Orleans from 1900 to 1904. And he was the president of UVA Alderman Library is named for him from 1904 to 1931. <br/> <br/> Doubleday, Doran & Company, Inc. hardcover

Justin Savile V. They are up against a serial killer dubbed by the local press Guess Who whose female victims are left looking like martyred saints; media attention steps up a notch when one of his victims may be world-famous Irish rock singer Mavis Mahar in Hillston for a concert. There are myriad complications: Mavis may be having an affair with the governor of the state whose wife Cuddy has long hankered after; a crooked attorney general promptly shows up at the scene of Mavis's apparent murder and destroys a heap of evidence. Meanwhile the bodies including that of a woman judge in a prominent local murder case keep piling up while Cuddy and Justin are running into dead ends in their search for suspects.

THE STICKING PLACE
N.Y.: McKay-Washburn 1974. 1st US ed. Near fine in lightly soiled dust jacket. Mann's 4th book. "Gus Seaton had the ideal existence-as a college professor he had the cushy job of running a private research center on nationalism; on television he was a charming witty and highly popular commentator. His wife Rachel pursued her career as a singer of classical and liturgical music wrapped in the security of a comfortable provincial life. Then things begin to fall apart. First Gus's right to the directorship of the research center and institute is bitterly attacked by a local Irish real estate broker who launches a smear campaign asserting that Gus is involved in a Scottish nationalist terrorist group. Following hard on the heels of this absurd accusation Rachel's "best friend"Lorna Hallam begins to suggest that Gus might be seeing another woman.The comfortable surface of Rachels life begins to dissolve under the tension of her own well-founded fear of violence in the service of nationalistic idealism" and the accidental discovery of clues that there may be more than mere slander and innuendo to the charges against Gus. Her teenage daughter's gestures of rebellion add yet one more turn to the screw as the illusions of domestic tranquillity become even more difficult to sustain. In the midst of all these concerns she is forced to play the heroine in a desperate adventure cast in the role by complexities of fate and conspiracy far beyond her wildest fears and imaginings. It is Rachel who ultimately confronts her own true self at that moment of deadly peril-at the sticking place." Jacket. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Book. McKay-Washburn Hardcover
