First edition of the Library of America release of the author's first three novels. Octavo, original maroon cloth. Signed by both Saul Bellow and James Wood on the title page. James Wood served as editor. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Rare signed as the author was aged at this point and did not attend booksignings for the release of this edition. Looking back at his first two novels later in his career, Bellow "distanced himself from them by calling Dangling Man his M.A. and The Victim his Ph.D." Like many of his works, the protagonist is a young Jewish man. In a New York heat wave he is accosted in the park by a stranger who accuses him of ruining his life. "The best novel to come out of America-or England-for a generation" (The New York Review of Books).

With Cornwallis and the British converging on Virginia, Jefferson reports to Greene that he will defend the state?Jefferson notes ?the arrival of a sixty four gun ship and two frigates of thirty six guns each, part of the French fleet at Rhode Island??This is our first letter of Jefferson to Greene, nor do we recall seeing another[embed]https://vimeo.com/1186337282?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci[/embed]?As 1781 dawned, Virginia had been essentially out of the war as a theater of significant armed conflict, having experienced just a few nuisance raids in the Tidewater country early in 1776 and some raiding parties in 1779. However, the fall of Charleston in 1780 set in motion a significant expansion of the British southern offensive, both as a way to offset the stalemate in the Northern theater, and as part of a ?Southern strategy?, in which British forces attempted to retake control over the South under the belief that there was a significant and sympathetic Loyalist population there.Virginia became a focus. On the first of January 1781, the British sent an expedition into the Chesapeake Bay of Virginia under the command of their new general, Benedict Arnold. Arnold conducted a lightening raid up the James River to Richmond, severely damaging or destroying American logistics lines and supply capacity. He then returned to the Chesapeake, fortifying his army at Portsmouth.The Battle of Cowpens was fought on January 17, 1781, near the town of Cowpens, South Carolina. An American army of regulars and militia under Gen. Daniel Morgan defeated a force of British and Loyalist troops, in the worst defeat suffered by the British in North America since the 1777 Saratoga campaign. Tactically, the battle demonstrated that militia, when deployed properly, could defeat experienced regulars, something which American military and political leaders had previously considered impossible.Morgan's militiamen disbanded after the battle, leaving 550 regulars under his command. British General Lord Cornwallis pursued Morgan, who evaded Cornwallis and joined Maj. Gen. Nathanael Greene?s army. Throughout early February, Cornwallis pursued Greene, aiming to destroy the American army in the South. Greene?s army successfully crossed the Dan River from North Carolina into Virginia on February 13-14, escaping Cornwallis. Seeing that Greene had crossed the Dan, Cornwallis withdrew and encamped in North Carolina. But Virginia remained on Cornwallis? radar, and he would attack it ere long.In February 1781, Washington dispatched the Marquis de Lafayette with some 1,200 men to Virginia?s aid. Also in February, a small French naval squadron under Captain de Tilly was dispatched from Newport, RI, to Virginia to assist Lafayette against British forces under Arnold. This squadron arrived in the Chesapeake Bay area, capturing the British frigate HMS Romulus and several transports. The larger French fleet would not arrive until August.Meanwhile, Jefferson received a report that Cornwallis had already established a position at the Roanoke River in Virginia, which alarmed him. His alarm was increased when he received a letter from Greene dated February 15, 1781, about the urgent need for defensive measures in Virginia. Greene wrote, ?The Country is inevitably lost unless decided Measures are taken. You will consider the necessity and act accordingly. I have not time to enter into a farther detail of matters, being pressed on every side with a multiplicity of business, and almost fatigued to death having had a retreat to conduct for upwards of 200 Miles maneuvering constantly in the face of the enemy, to give time for the Militia to turn out and to get off our Stores. In addition to the common difficulties incident to all retreats, we have had several large rivers to cross and the enemy at our heels before we could get over. Necessity has and will oblige me to take many measures to effect the removal of our Stores contrary to the established laws of the different States; the occ.
