An ad in the back of the book characterizes it thusly: "Woman the eternal huntress in her search for the father of those children which shall be her gift to posterity is the theme of this striking first novel by a young American. It would be difficult to name another novel of recent years that treats of the sex problems of the younger generation as frankly and as withal as cleanly and vividly." One contemporary reviewer called it "one of the most unconsciously funny books which these weary eyes have ever contemplated." . Alfred A. Knopf hardcover books

Ryerson Florence and Alice DG. Miller D. G.
Little Scandal: A Comedy in Three Acts
New York/Hollywood: Samuel French. Near Fine in Very Good dj. c.1951. First Edition. Hardcover. nice tight clean book minimal shelfwear only; jacket a little age-toned at edges and spine but still quite good-looking. B&W photographs Two veteran screenwriters both of whom earned their chops during the silent-film days teamed up for this "up-to-the-minute laughter-provoking comedy" about a young secretary for a United Nations commission who "returns to her small-town home with a just-born baby and a not-too-convincing story of how she happens to have him on her hands." Many farcical complications ensue. Ms. Ryerson 1892-1965 came to the movies in the mid-1920s after having already established herself as a journalist and writer of short fiction; she often wrote in collaboration with her second husband Colin Clements who she married in 1927. They co-authored numerous plays including three that made it to Broadway in the 1940s and several mystery novels and Ryerson herself had quite a decent string of movie credits including as one of the three credited screenwriters on THE WIZARD OF OZ. Ms. Miller 1894-1985 was most active as a scenarist during the 1920s with just a handful of credits after that. "Little Scandal" had its debut and perhaps its biggest success at the Pasadena Playhouse in December 1950; the two count 'em photos that illustrate the book are presumably from that production which had absolutely nobody in it you've ever heard of with the possible exception of Madge Blake a character actress who popped up all over the place on American TV in the 1950s and 1960s. .

Mild Oats
New York/London: D. Appleton and Company. Very Good in Good dj. 1933. First Edition. Hardcover. solid copy minor shelfwear tiny stain on top edge of text block; jacket has shallow chipping along top edge and at base of spine spine heavily soiled front and rear panels a little less so. Light-hearted Booth Tarkingtonesque novel about a teenage Everygirl one Jane Jones who we meet "in the throes of adolescence" and subsequently "struggle through her great crushes and follow her ambitions to become alternately a poet a peeress and an actress." Ryerson 1892-1965 came to the movies in the mid-1920s after having already established herself as a journalist and writer of short fiction; she often wrote in collaboration with Clements her second husband to whom she was married from 1927 until his death in 1948. They co-authored numerous plays including three that made it to Broadway in the 1940s and several mystery novels and Ryerson herself had quite a decent string of movie credits including as one of the three credited screenwriters on THE WIZARD OF OZ. This was actually the second novel the duo had written about young Jane and her best pal C following "This Awful Age" published in 1930. A proposed film version of "Mild Oats" was rumored in early 1934 and although it never came to pass the earlier book did finally make it to the screen in 1941 as HER FIRST BEAU but not without having first been repurposed as a stage play called "June Mad." .

Monahan Florence
Women in Crime
New York: Ives Washburn Inc. Near Fine in Very Good- dj. c.1941. First Edition. Hardcover. price-clipped light shelfwear very slight bumping at a couple of corners; jacket moderately worn at edges and extremities and the bottom one-third of the spine has gotten scrunched with resulting wrinkling and chipping at base of spine. B&W photo frontispiece "The leading woman penologist of our country presents the absorbing story of her life among the women who have failed society and themselves." Ms. Monahan the stern yet somehow motherly type to judge from her frontispiece portrait photo had headed up a number of penal institutions including the California State Prison for Women at Tehachapi. At the time of writing she was Superintendent of the Shakopee Minnesota State Women's Reformatory which transitioned to a new facility in 1986 but is still in operation as the state's only women's prison. She dedicates her book "to the hundreds of women prisoners I have known who are now good citizens." The Foreword is by Lewis E. Lawes ex-warden of Sing Sing who was well-known for his own chronicles of penal life "Twenty Thousand Years in Sing Sing" et al. Homosexuality among women prisoners is discussed in Chapter XVI "The Sex Problem." Very scarce especially in the jacket. . Ives Washburn, Inc. hardcover books

Benoit Pierre translated from the French by Florence and Victor Llona
Salt Lake
New York: Alfred A. Knopf. Good. 1922. 1st U.S. edition. Hardcover. no dust jacket solid enough book with binding intact but should be considered a reading copy only due to external wear and bumping an unsightly beverage-ring scar on the front cover see scan and internal tape repait to a page that had been ripped in half. Uncommon novel originally published in France in 1921. It's "historical fiction" in a sense but as the New York Times described it in 1922 "it is not a history of Salt Lake City as occupied by the Mormons so much as the story of the mental and physical anguish of a young widow who is unsuspectingly drawn into marriage with a Mormon and finds herself the second wife -- one of three wives and perhaps others." A stage adaptation was presented in Paris in 1926 about which the Times correspondent commented that the playwright "obviously knows very little about Utah and the history of the Mormons and Mormonism and was forced to rely entirely upon Pierre Benoit who also unfortunately knows very little concerning them a fact which did not prevent his novel from obtaining immense popularity in France." Nor did it prevent Benoit whose best-known work is probably "L'Atlantide" 1919 from becoming a member of the Académie française in 1931. . Alfred A. Knopf hardcover books
