First Edition
First Edition stated. Marc Brody dustjacket design. A cry of protest against the organized power of modern advertising, current catchwords, and high pressure salesmanship - against the organized mob. It exposes the corruption of the American mind and indicts the accomplices in the corruption. Written under a pseudonym by author Maurice Samuel, A Jewish and Zionist intellectual, best known for his work You Gentiles, published in 1924. Most of his work concerns Judaism or the Jew's role in history and modern society, but he also wrote more conventional fiction and non-fiction. Very uncommon title. This copy with Maurice Samuel written in red ink at title page, by Samuel? or by someone who discovered his authorship. Very Good in Very Good dustjacket, small chips at spine ends and flap corners.
