Description:
SIGNED by both editors on bookplate of front flyleaf. Is Ayn Rand, as Susan Brownmiller claims in an essay reprinted here, "a traitor to her own sex"? Or do Rand and her work, as other contributors argue, embody essential feminist characteristics? Feminist Interpretations of Ayn Rand offers abundant food for thought on these and other gender issues in the body of Rand's work, especially Atlas Shrugged. Both editors have published their own works on Rand. (Gladstein, The Ayn Rand Companion, 1984; Sciabarra, Ayn Rand: The Russian Radical, 1995). Here's a beautiful copy with a bookplate signed by both editors. No jacket as issued. Book #Pv3314. $52. We specialize in Rare Ayn Rand, history, and science.

Description:
Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. FIGHTERS FOR FREEDOM. First Edition, Inscribed by Read on the front flyleaf. Read is best known for his two earlier books, Read's Salesmanship and The Abolition of Inheritance. In these brief stories, written in first person to readers, he recounts the battles for liberty--"The inspiring story of Men and Women Who Fought for Liberty throughout the Ages"-- waged by its giants, known (Socrates, Milton) and unknown (Clarkson, Decatur). While some of Read's choices for distinction may be questionable, his charm and dramatic technique appeal to idealists of all ages. Book is very good, square, firm, with slight spine split and darkening to back pastedown. The jacket is chipped at the top and bottom of spine and on the back panel, but maintains its vibrant red, white and blue cover. For lovers of freedom, a welcome, inscribed addition for the library of Liberty. Book #P5a102. $25. We specialize in rare Ayn Rand, history, and science.

A Eckel provides a great deal of bibliographic detail for identification of true first editions. According to Dickens scholar Duane DeVries: "Eckel's work still stands, despite criticism of its writing style and its errors, as the standard modern bibliography of Dickens's writings, though one directed more toward collectors than scholars.One can easily see why the volume is both praised and criticized.

Description:
SIGNED First Edition of Guberman's heavily illustrated study of the life and art of Frank Stella. Undaunted by Stella's infamous comment "Only what can be seen there is there," Guberman traces Stella's career, exploring sources as diverse as Jasper Johns, Jean Arp, and Henri Matisse, investigating the technical complexity of the work, and interweaving more personal insights into the events of his life, Stella's passion for sport and speed, and the role of his family and colleagues in the artistic sphere. What emerges is a portrait of a man of seemingly boundless creative energy, who is perpetually challenging himself and his world. Lavishly illustrated, this volume combines handsome color reproductions of nearly one hundred of Stella's paintings and prints with a wealth of images from the artist's collection and other sources that vividly capture his spirit and pursuits. Book #Cv2314. $98. We specialize in Rare Ayn Rand, history, and science.
