Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. In this issue of Cornet, for April 1961, we find a thoughtful photo-essay on the American Civil War. "Our Saddest War" consists of 20 pages of black-and-white photographs that speak eloquently, if silently, to the tragedy of that terrible conflict. Accompanying the pictures is a text by American author, Wallace Stegner. It is all proof that one never knows where a serious reminder of mankind's frailty will crop up. This article and the articles of which I write below, are both, together, worth the price of admission. As well as the somber reminder above, there is an article titled "The Right to Be an Atheist" by the Rt. Rev. James A. Pike. Bishop Pike was in later years to find international notoriety - or celebrity - depending on one's perspective. Pike was the fifth Episcopal Bishop of California, and was considered by many of his fellow priests to be heretical in his thinking, public pronouncements and writings. He became interested in psychic phenomena and spiritualism after his son died. Pike had long been a spokesman for liberal Protestant thinking; he promoted a living wage, and acceptance of LGBT persons (LGBT being an acronym unknown at the time). But his delving into occult matters was too much for the more conservative elements of the Episcopal Church. (to quote Wikipedia : "Pike's theology involved the rejection of central Christian beliefs. His writings questioned a number of widely accepted tenets, including the virginity of Mary, the Mother of Jesus; the doctrine of Hell, and the Trinity. He famously called for 'fewer beliefs, more belief.' " - the Church censured Pike.) Pike died in the Judean desert, where he and his wife became lost and dehydrated. He fell to his death. Pike was the subject of several books, including Philip K. Dick's "The Transmigration of Timothy Archer" (Pike officiated at Dick's wedding). Joan Didion and E. L. Doctorow also wrote about Pike, or used him as a character model. There is much much more in this issue, including an article on Robert Goddard ("The Vindication of Robert Goddard"), a piece on actor Robert Taylor, a fluffy photo essay on Leslie Caron, food articles, jokes and humorous bits, stories, movie reviews, and more. Lots of great period advertising. We have provided a view of the issue's Table of Contents. TITLE : Coronet ISSUE : Volume 40, Number 6, Whole No. 293 DATE : April 1961 IMPRINT : David A.
