Text/NEW & Bright. Vintage 1946, First Edition, 2nd Printing. Beige linen hardcover/NF w/trace surface wear, w/PO stamps to lower text edge. DJ/None. 1950 PO records of 1950. Prolific, reflective, American author Philip Gordon Wylie (1902 – 1971) gave us works spanning from pulp science fiction, mysteries, social diatribes, satires on ecology to threats on nuclear holocaust, with nine works adapted to film. This 1942 collection of philoosphically reflective essays on social criticism of America was a best-seller in the 1940'ss (following Pearl Harbor, Sunday, Dec. 7, 1941), inspired the term "Momism". 334 pgs in 29 chapters includes a 1945 Postscript from Wylie.
