From Goodreads: "From its founding in 1929 Railway Express Agency dominated the transportation industry until the 1960s. In return for a monopoly on passenger train service the express company was obligated to accept any and all shipments within the United States. REA handled carloads of cattle race horses and fruits and vegetables. Radioactive material was moved on regular schedules for the Atomic Energy Commission. When companies or individuals wanted to ship something even ten turtles to any place in the world even Tucumcari New Mexico they called REA. The history of REA coincides with the career of Klink Garrett who began as a temporary employee in Rapid City South Dakota in 1934 and stayed with REA until 1973 by which time he was a senior executive and member of the company's board of directors. Garrett spent the first half of his tenure working in small offices usually one-man operations in the West. In 1956 he was promoted to a national sales position with offices in both New York City and Washington D.C. His main job was to coordinate the transportation needs of the Defense Department and the emerging nuclear industry via REA. His entrepreneurial ethic -- a combination of extraordinary customer service and good old-fashioned ingenuity -- gave him lots of good stories to tell many of which are related here. His last fifteen years at REA were the years of the company's decline and the decline of the nation's railroads; by 1976 the company was bankrupt and out of business." GoodReads rating 4.25 stars. First Edition so stated. Hardcover. Reading / reference copy/With dust jacket as issued. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 8vo. xiv 172pp. Great Packaging Fast Shipping.

New York: Delacorte Press 1970. BOOK: Front Fixed Endpaper Pulled From Removal of Previous Owner's Bookplate; Corners Spine Boards Bumped; Light Shelf Rub to Boards; Spine Slightly Cocked; Edges Moderately Soiled; Slight Yellowing Due to Age. DUST JACKET: Missing. CONTENTS: PART ONE: THE YOUNG QUEEN 1 All Men Lamented 2 England's Rough Wooing 3 The Most Perfect Child 4 Betrothal 5 Queen-Dauphiness 6 The White Lily of France 7 Mary the Widow PART TWO: THE PERSONAL RULE 8 The State of the Realm 9 Conciliation and Reconciliation 10 Governor Good and Gracious 11 The Fall of Huntly 12 A Husband for a Girl 13 The Carnal Marriage 14 Our Most Special Servant 15 Breakdown 16 The Murder of Darnley 17 The Mermaid and the Hare 18 Lochleven 19 In Foreign Bands 20 Her Privy Letters 21 My Norfolk 22 The Uses of Adversity 23 Mother and Son 24 The Babington Plot 25 Trial 26 The Dolorous Stroke 27 Epilogue: the Theatre of the World; Appendix; Reference Notes; Bibliography; Index. EXCERPT: Author's Note - I had two principal aims when I began to write this biography. First being possessed since childhood by a passion for the subject of Mary Queen of Scots I wished to test for myself the truth or falsehood of the many legends which surround her name. In order to tear away these cobwebs--or in certain cases reverently replace them--I delved into as many published and unpublished sources as I could discover taking as my starting-point Mary's own letters and the calendars of state papers although of course there may well be some sources of which I was unhappily ignorant. Secondly for the sake of the general reader I hoped to set Mary anew in the context of the age in which she lived. In the course of my own inquiries I was surprised to discover that despite the enormous quantity of research on the sixteenth century published during the last fifty years radically changing our attitudes to certain of its aspects no general life of Mary has yet appeared taking it all into account. There have been detailed treatments of certain episodes in her life--notably that of the Kirk o'Field murder and the Casket Letters and later the Babington Plot--and Stefan Zweig's fascinating psychological interpretation written in the thirties. But the last full-length biography giving documentation was that of T. F. Henderson in 1905. So in the end my two aims converged and I found myself with the single objective of showing with as much accuracy as is possible in the light of modern research what Mary Queen of Scots must have been like as a person.
