For more than fifty years, he was a contributor to The New Yorker magazine. He was also a co-author of the ever valued English language usage guide, The Elements of Style. As icing on his cake, White wrote books for children; among them: Stuart Little (1945), Charlotte's Web (1952), and The Trumpet of the Swan (1970). In a 2012 survey of School Library Journal readers, Charlotte's Web was voted the top children's novel. A NEAR FLAWLESS SET!!! We shall include three Brodart "mylar" transparent dust jacket protectors in case the buyer wishes to protect the dj's, but have not attached them beforehand because the books in the box are so tight. Reprints with mixed dates of publication; The Trumpet of the Swan being 1970, an early-- though later--printing without a number line of the 1970 first edition. Seller Inventory # 10099
