About This Item
Southern Illinois University Press, 1998-06-24. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Hardcover with DJ, (still in publishers shrinkwrap) First Edition 1998 Southern Illinois University Press 263 pages. Fine, in a Fine DJ. Brand New - never read (still in publishers shrinkwrap). A powerful group including B. H. Liddell Hart, Robert Graves, and A. W. Lawrence worked behind the scenes to suppress and denigrate the biography and to influence Aldingtonâs publisher to force him to make changes to the manuscript before it was published.Crawford demonstrates that an influential clique with money and power can damage the reputation of a book even before people have had an opportunity to read it. That Aldingtonâs findings were nearly suppressed reveals how little freedom of the press can mean when a book displeases influential people with positionsâor mythsâto maintain. A superb copy.
