Beige cloth with red backstrip and white lettering. Cover vignette. Hint of edgewear. Text is clean and bright, no marks. Clipped DJ shows darkening to spine, minor edgewear, small chip to upper front corner, mild general soil. "Entertaining San Francisco Chronicle readers for a decade with observations on love, booze, sports, noted personalities, women, youth and himself. Why is he called The Fearless Spectator? One reason may be deferential acknowledgement of debt of Messers. Addison and Steele, the original "Spectators", whose essays on the social life of their times have influenced more recent practitioners of the genre, including H.L. Mencken, Lucius Beebe and McCabe himself." (from the jacket).
