About this Item

1964 Book Club Hardcover edition. The dustjacket is quite scuffed but all pages intact and legible. Good reading copy. Clean. No store stamps. --- --- This is a funny novel about the four gravest threats we face---cigarettes, food, TV, and love.--- HERE'S THE FIRST FEW SENTENCES --- --- Never mind what they tell you on Madison Ave. It was not one of those thin-lapelled Ivy League copywriters who composed the immortal jingle. Oh, they will wink and look wise, but do not be deceived. It was "not" one of them. It was Jefferson Tatum himself. Yes, Jefferson Tatum, who came barefoot off a burley patch at the age of twelve and worked and gouged and scrabbled and finally built the great Tatum Cigarette Company with his own two callused hands,who caused people the world over to step up to tobacco counters and ask for Tatums as often as they ask for Camels or Marlboros--Jefferson Tatum, unlettered and unschooled, who was magically touched by the Muse in his office late one night and wrote the jingle--he, himself--on the back of a bill of lading: --- TATUMS SMOKE MILD, LIKE AN INNOCENT CHILD.
