About this Item

**AMAZING ASSOCIATION COPY INSCRIBED BY PULITZER PRIZE WINNER EMORY HOLLOWAY TO HIS SISTER, BESS. INCREDIBLY RARE BOOK WITH GREAT 1930's ILLUSTRATIONS!!** Janice In Tomorrow-Land by Emory Holloway. American Book Company, 1936, New York. FIRST EDITION, FIRST PRINTING. INSCRIBED on the front free end paper: "FOR BESS, WITH LOVE, EMORY. APRIL 29, 1936". An original book review article from the Brooklyn Daily Eagle on April 27, 1936 is included! Emory Holloway (1885 -1977) was best known for books and studies of Walt Whitman. His work, Whitman: An Interpretation in Narrative (1926) was the first biography of a literary figure to win the Pulitzer Prize for Biography or Autobiography in 1927. I recently attended an Estate Sale of Holloway's daughter, Rita Tybout and purchased several of his books which will soon be listed on ABE. This is an incredibly rare and very interesting book with wonderful 1930's illustrations. The book has been described by The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction as ".which carries a version of Lewis Carroll's Alice figure into a modernistic Near Future, which she finds moderately bewildering." The book is in VERY GOOD condition. Slight darkening and age wear of spine otherwise book and contents are incredibly bright and brilliant!
