About This Item

New York: Louis Carrier & Co., 1929. First. Hardcover. Fair. 8vo, 309 pages, maroon cloth, good, lacks front free endpaper

Author's first book. Woodford was a prolific writer during the Chicago Renaissace who knew all the writers here, but he is ignored by nearly all critics because most of his material appeared in 'sex magazines'. [See Andrews' CHICAGO IN STORY p. 213]. "The professor's faith in God was exactly equal to his faith in Santa Claus - p.2."

About Thomas J. Joyce And Company

Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
