SH consignment. Shelved in Room F. The first book produced by the Three Mountains. Press. Bill Bird was an American publisher best known for running the Three Mountains Press, a small press that published many prominent modernists in the 1920s including Ezra Pound, Ernest Hemingway, James Joyce, William Carlos Williams and Robert McAlmon, with Ezra Pound serving as editor. Over a period of two and a half years he published 9 works. Concurrently he founded Consolidated Press Service and worked there as a journalist from 1920-1933, when he joined the New York Sun as chief foreign correspondent. Forced to flee France after the Nazi invasion, he wrote articles warning of war. After WWII he moved to Tangier and was the editor of the Tangier Gazette. This title was among Bird's private collection, having been carted by him from Paris (where he stayed until 1940), to Spain, Tangiers, and finally back to Paris and by descent to the US. 1403573.
