Guest's first professionally produced play was THAT WHICH COUNTS (1925) and she is the author of the novel DARK HERITAGE (1931).

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First edition. Top corner a little bumped else near fine in very good or better dust jacket with a little age-toning and tiny nicks and tears. Inscribed by Upton Sinclair to Sinclair Lewis (using his nickname, Hal): "To Hal, How many strange things have happened in the world in the thirty-five years since fate brought us together. Upton. Xmas, 1941." The act of fate referred to was when Sinclair Lewis left Yale in 1906 to become a janitor at Upton Sinclair's ill-fated Helicon Hall colony. Above the inscription is a penciled note initialed by author Lewis Browne, the final line of his note has been partially erased but is nevertheless readable and we include it here: "This volume was mailed to Sinclair Lewis c/o my address (we were lecture-touring together) and S.L. told me to keep it because he was traveling light [erased] - and didn't care for the book anyway. L.B." Presumably Browne erased the final line when he in turn gave the book away. On the tour, Lewis and Browne's were debating whether fascism was possible in the United States. A nicer than usual copy of this entry in Sinclair's Lanny Budd series, wartime Pulitzer Prize winner, uncommon in jacket, and with a wonderful association.

Dragon's teeth (German: Drachenz??hne) are square-pyramidal fortifications of reinforced concrete first used during the Second World War to impede the movement of tanks and mechanised infantry. The idea was to slow down and channel tanks into killing zones where they could easily be disposed of by anti-tank weapons. They were employed extensively, particularly on the Siegfried Line. In practice, the use of combat engineers and specialist clearance vehicles enabled them to be disposed of relatively quickly, and they proved far less of an obstacle than many had expected. The obstacles could also simply be buried using bulldozers and dump trucks. In English the term "Siegfried Line" commonly refers to the "Westwall", the German term for a similar Second World War-era defensive line built further east during the 1930s opposite the French Maginot Line. This line stretched more than 630 km (390 mi) and featured more than 18,000 bunkers, tunnels and tank traps. The network of defensive structures stretched from Kleve on the border with the Netherlands, along the western border of the old German Empire, to the town of Weil am Rhein on the border to Switzerland. It was planned in 1936 and built between 1938 and 1940. From September 1944 to March 1945, the Siegfried Line was subject to a large scale Allied offensive, mainly American with over 100,000 soldiers. The overall cost of this Campaign in American personnel was close to 140,000. The German losses were not well documented.
