New York: STEIN AND DAY, 1972. Hardcover. Yellow boards, rust cloth spine. Very good, in very good dust wrapper. 258 pages. Elaine Morgan takes to task the Book of Genisis along with Darwin's The Descent of Man by questioning the evolution of the human race. Morgan's reasoned reinterpretation of evolution of the human species leaves few myths unquestioned: Did men become Mighty Hunters overnight - or ever? Where was Mrs. Naked Ape during the time her mate was learning to walk upright and throw stones? Does the human racce - more specifically, do men - come by aggression naturally? Interior and boards crisp and clean. Dust wrapper lightly rubbed. Covered in protective mylar.

Description:
Newton, Iowa, 1950's. This interesting collection represents the large part electrical appliances had on the American consumers during the post W.W.II era. The Maytag brand, originated in 1893 by Frederick Louis Maytag and three partners, initially produces farm equipment such as threshing machines. When the brand began producing gasoline powered washing machines for rural areas that had no access to electricity, the business grew. During W.W.II the company focused on designing and building parts for the war effort. After the war, the rapid expanse of suburban living made the electric powered washing machine something everyone wanted. The designer and inventor, Downer P. Dykes was a young man just starting out in the appliance industry when he helped design the "Fabric Treatment Machine" for Maytag. He would go on to develop the first crock pot with removable crockery liners and receive a patent for the Rival Electric Can Opener. Later, Dykes would teach industrial design at Kansas University.…

New York: Carroll & Graf Publishers, Inc., 1999. Hardcover. Blue board, black spine. Near fine, in near fine dust wrapper. 466 pages. "In this shrewd cultural history of drink in America, Andrew Barr considers the significance of alcohol, historically and socially, symbolic and real, in evolution of a nation born of a rebel spirit and intoxicated by liberty - and sometimes by run or raw whiskey, which the colonists preferred to their royally taxed British tea. While Americans have both asserted alcohol they have also, in Barr's perceptive historical view, put it to more insidious use: in suppressing native American populations in the country's expansion west, for instance, or in controlling acculturation of immigrants." Clean, crisp copy.
