Mild jacket edgewear and bit of rubbing; inoffensive front pastedown abrasion. Handsome and tight first edition of this essay collection by the versatile intellectual, author, editor, critic, television and radio persona (1904-99). With choice autograph addition: Tipped to front flyleaf is an Autograph Note Signed from Fadiman, 1p, 8¼" X 11", New York, NY, 14 January 1954. Addressed to Miss Miller. Very good. On imprinted letterhead, Fadiman begs off an engagement, telling this literary club representative "It would be pleasant to be able to afford a half-week vacation in Chicago, but I fear I must be realistic...." Boldly penned and signed in black ink. Across the top, the recipient writes large and bold and annoyed, "...I wrote him and we decided that 'Friends' could pay plane fare. Now, comes 2nd refusal from Fadiman! So different from [Bennett] Cerf." Miller (1881-1969) was a Chicago playwright, poet and singer who authored "Marked Corners: A Three Act Play About Young Abraham Lincoln in Indiana, 1816-1830" (1954), the historical fiction "Golden Heritage" (1950) and "The Collected Poetry of Francesca Falk Miller" (1956).
