INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR: "W. LOUIS F. POST / INCLUDING GREETINGS FROM / STELLA MILES FRANKLIN" RED CLOTH COVERED BOARDS WITH BLACK TITLES TO THE SPINE. BOOK HAS MODEST RUB/WEAR AT THE TURNED CORNERS AND THE SLIGHTLY DARKENED SPINE'S EDGES, AND COVERS ARE MODERATELY MARKED AND FADED. A VERY NICE CLEAN COPY. Louis F Post was an advocate of Henry George's "SINGLE TAX" philosophy and the founder, with his wife Anna, of a journal of liberal opinion, called "Public". He was appointed in 1913 assitant secretary of Labor, and continued in office through President Wilson's 2 terms. He ran up against the anti-communists during the "red scare" because he sought to temper the deportation of radical aliens with humanity and liberalism. This resluted in being subjected to an impeachment attempt which he brilliantly defended by shaming his inquisitors. Stella had know the couple from her Chicago days and apparently kept in touch with Anna for the rest of her life. Since Louis died in 1928, I understand the inscription to be to Anna and the odd "W" possibility indicating widow?
