Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Here is "Anatole France Himself" by his secretary, Jean Jacques Brousson. This is the 1925 Second Printing of the American edition published by Lippincott. The text was translated from the French by John Pollock, who also wrote the Foreword. This is about as exce…ptional a copy of this title as one could hope to find. The dust-jacket write-up is amusing and should give an idea of what to expect from the text: "Here is Anatole France himself at the Villa Said, chaffing his shrewish wife, shouting at his formidable old servant, Josephine (whose business was to see that he dressed himself properly), chaffering with curio-sellers, burning the piles of unread letters heaped high in his bath tub, correcting proof with his indispensable paste and scissors. He ranges about in history, talks to us of Joan of Arc and still more of Napoleon, gives his views on Berlin and music. We listen to his reminiscences of his childhood, discussions of his literary contemporaries, his skepticism and melancholy, his friendships and old books. "His biographer has introduced, also, delightful little comedies of a more dramatic nature: Anatole France receives a visit from a Bishop; writes his weekly article with half a dozen people dancing attendance to see that it gets off on time; banters a lady anxious about the state of his soul; quotes Racine to his newspaper woman; sends his wife to look at a non-existent tomb that he may stay behind to enjoy the society of a not unattractive and admiring lady. Here, as lovers of France will expect, is also Anatole France the thorough-going pagan, not only excusing irregularities but preaching them. At that, some of the tales set down hereon are not more unblushingly salacious than one or two so-so stories in Castellane." TITLE : Anatole France Himself, AUTHOR : Jean Jacques Brousson, TRANSLATOR / FOREWORD : John Pollock, IMPRINT : J. B. Lippincott & Company. PLACE : New York & London. DATE : 1925. EDITION : Second Printing of the First American Edition. STATUS : OP - Out of Print PROVENANCE : Contains the book plate of noted medical doctor, William Maul Measey. PHYSICAL DETAILS : Trade Hardcover; Contains a frontispiece portrait of Anatole France and a Foreword; viii + 356 pages; 5 5/8" x 8 3/4"; quarter-bound black cloth spine with red paper-covered boards paper title labels on spine and front board; red dust-jacket has photo-portrait f Anatole France glued to the front panel, title, etc lettered in black.

CONDITION -- BOOK : VERY GOOD -- JACKET : VERY GOOD -- This is a previously owned book which remains clean and attractive, with the following particulars noted: EXTERIOR- Exceptional - bright and fresh. BINDING - Solid. The book has obviously been read and thus the text block is not so tight as when issued, but still quite solid. INTERIOR - Clean and presentable with negligible signs of handling. A previous owner's handsome bookplate is affixed to the front paste-down, reading Ex Libris William Maul Measey. The picture on the bookplate is of a monk kneeling with a book at a lectern - in the background is the Holy Family; around the edges of the bookplate are the words, "Take thou a book into thine hands as Simon the Just took the Child Jesus into his arms to carry him to kiss him." JACKET - A little bit rough about the edges, with small nicking (most noticeable at spine panel extremities) - and slight loss to flap extremities - surface has mild weathering and rub and a touch of spotting - price still on front flap - displays nicely under protective archival mylar cover.
