Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Good dj. First Edition. [book is modestly shelfworn, with bumping to lower corners and a bit of fading to the cloth along the top edge; the jacket is worn and soiled, browned at the spine, with various small chips and tears, a bit of paper loss at the spine ends, etc.]. "The founded-on-facts story of a life on a well-known American campus of today, among the undergraduates who people today's colleges with today's talent for spirited, amusing, exciting living. [But it's] not a sensational expose, a penny-catching shocker, or a tirade against Flaming Youth. It is something DIFFERENT in the realm of college fiction -- a completely honest picture of behind-the-scenes life during a year in a typical fraternity house." Not surprisingly, given its place of publication ("in this limited edition only"), it's not included in John O. Lyons's "The College Novel in America, nor in Hanna; OCLC records only nine copies. This was the author's second novel; she went on to pen a couple of mysteries in the 1940s, and then seems to have settled into the nurse/romance genre. (Curiously, the book's dedication is "To my brothers in Phi Delta Theta." Have I mis-gendered the author?). Illustrated by (dj design) William Frederick Howes, Jr. (illustrator). …
