About This Item

Wonderful vintage book in just acceptable condition dark cloth boards heavily Sun tanned at spine interesting inscription from organization given for good school work- this is one of the copies of books that were printed during World War II they had very heavily monitored use of materials - check the pictures you can see that it complies. Wonderful story well-reviewed- Twelve tales of the United States' early days, capturing moments in the lives of great leaders and farmers alike, all dreaming of the nation to come Written mostly while the United States was engaged in World War II, these patriotic stories imagine the best of the American spirit during its formative years. From "The Day of Victory," about a victorious George Washington meeting with his generals one last time to swap stories before they all return to civilian life, to "The Bookman," about a tragic day during the Revolutionary War as experienced by a young boy, each story depicts common citizens standing against tyranny, and settlers searching for a better life. Passionate and beautifully written, Patrick Henry and the Frigate's Keel is one of Howard Fast's best story collections, and a moving tribute to the aspirations of a new nation.== Patrick Henry and the Frigate's Keel: And Other Stories of a Young Nation- A wartime book Volume 787 of Armed Services editions Forum books- Author Howard Fast- Publisher Duell, Sloan and Pearce, 1945- Length 253 pages- B0006AQQI4 -fair to acceptable-D/J missing- see pictures maybe this will do it maybe it won't. you'll know by looking at the pictures -Expedited Shipping available-by request/ price adjust-..Ruth Reaser..LAX Vespa shipped -United States Post to fulfill your order, Los Angeles I carefully pack your book,hop on my Vespa visit the PO to have it placed in our mail system.. your books wrapped,not co-mingled,you get the copy you were viewing.
