First edition. 436 pp. Very small mark to front cover, else fine in bright dust jacket which has a few short tears and light overall edgewear. Bookseller Burton Weiss wrote: First edition of what is probably the first anthology of gay short stories to be published in the United States. The twenty-one contributors include Sherwood Anderson, Paul Bowles, John Horne Burns, Henry James, Christopher Isherwood, D.H. Lawrence, Charles Jackson, Denton Welch, William Carlos Williams. Two stories, by Guy de Maupassant and Paul Verlaine, were newly translated by the editor himself, with Verlaine's "Charles Husson" not having previously been published in English. "Donald Webster Cory" is the pseudonym of the sociologist Edward Sagarin (1913-86), derived, by reversal, from "Corydon," a shepherd boy in much ancient Greek homoerotic poetry and the eponymous protagonist of André Gide's influential book of dialogues. Sagarin, as "Cory," was a gay activist in the early 1950's. His best-known work, THE HOMOSEXUAL IN AMERICA: A SUBJECTIVE APPROACH (1951), was the first widely-read book in the U.S. to demonstrate the legal, social and economic discrimination leveled against an "amazingly large" segment of the American population and to put forward a strong defense of homosexual rights. It viewed gay people as "the unrecognized minority." Although it was published pseudonymously, Sagarin wrote the book "as a homosexual," as he did THE HOMOSEXUAL AND HIS SOCIETY: A VIEW FROM WITHIN (with John P. LeRoy, 1963). Some years later, Sagarin rejected much of this early work, decided that homosexuality was a disease like alcoholism, and published anti-gay articles in sociology journals under his real name. Nevertheless, THE HOMOSEXUAL IN AMERICA remains an immensely important book in the history of the gay rights movement, and 21 VARIATIONS ON A THEME remains a pioneering anthology. SIGNED by Sagarin as Donald Webster Cory on the front free endpaper. Young 811*.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Stated First Edition at copyright page. Copyright 1963 by Emmett McLoughlin. Classic gray, dark gray and white marbled boards with deep blue spine titles, moderate shelf wear, toning. Pages near fine, clean. Imagery throughout depicting characters and events from story. Includes detailed bibliographical chapter notes, a bibliography and a five-page index. Bind fine, square; hinges intact. Original 1960s dust wrapper design, light shelf wear, rub; unclipped 4.95, protected in new clear sleeve. Near fine first edition in same wrapper. Some of author's previous works include: "Crime and Immortality in the Catholic Church; Portrait of an Ex-Priest; Priest to Citizen; No Short Cut to Heaven; and, Freemasonry- America's Sleeping Giant." Former Catholic priest Emmett McLoughlin takes down the stone wall of silence and taboo surrounding the story of the part played by the Roman Catholic Church in the conspiracy, event, and aftermath. The best evidence of church involvement in Abraham Lincoln's murder is the financial assistance and physical sanctuary given to John Wilkes Booth's co-conspirator. John Surratt fled to Rome by way of Canada and England, with the help of priests, and served in the army of Pope Pius IX before being extradited for trial in Washington, D.C. Other conspirators in the assassination had Catholic connections, detailed here. But more than half of this book is devoted to describing what the Emmett McLoughlin sees as the toxic atmosphere arising from church disapproval of American institutions in general, and Lincoln in particular. Examples of such conditions are the 1863 Irish Catholic draft riots in New York, tacitly approved by the local archbishop; and the papal support of a European monarch in Mexico, with ambitions of extending its empire north. Maximilian I, an Austrian archduke became emperor of the Second Mexican Empire in 1864 whom Pius IX was eventually disappointed with and was executed by the Mexican Republic in 1867. Pius IX also encouraged Jefferson Davis in opposition to Lincoln. Surratt's mother was hanged for her involvement in the plot, but John Surratt's trial ended in a deadlocked jury, even after the first panel was dismissed because most of its members were Catholic. He went on to teach in Catholic schools. At his death in 1916, John Surratt was honored with a Solemn High Requiem Mass. Printed in the United States of America. 190 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall. Various Illustrators (illustrator). Book.…
