About This Item
E-100: Harris-Wolfe. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket. 1968. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Hardcover. 8vo. Harris-Wolfe & Co. 1968. 356 pgs. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has shelf-wear present to the DJ (chip present to the crown & heel of the DJ spine; scuff present to the front panel of the DJ). No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks, binding tight and solid, boards clean with no wear present. A collection of stories by the romantic Young, which includes "Little Dog Gone," a Hugo nominee, with an appreciative introduction by Fritz Leiber. Robert F. Young's strengths and weaknesses may be quickly summarized. His stories are polished, smooth, slick, reasonably entertaining, and shallow. They are freqently sentimental boy-meets-girl romances or mild satires. When Young is in a satirical mode, his targets are fairly broad and obvious: the American obsession with automobiles, environmental despoilers, puritanical religious fanatics, and military warmongers. E-90; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 356 pages .
