My Lord, What a Morning
Avon S165. Mass Market Paperback. Good. 1957, 4th printing (1964). Creasing, chipping, browning, wear, slight cocking. "The road to $500 gowns, the great concert halls of world capitals, and the Metropolitan Opera House was not easy. At times Marian Anderson thought she would never rise above poverty, indifference--and Jim Crow. We share with her the misery of being cheated on her fees . . . the grim hard work of giving 100 concerts a year . . . and finally the glory of performing in the White House. We feel the famous refusal to allow her to sing in Constitution Hall . . . and also, as only this warm-hearted woman can tell it, what it means to move an audience to cheers and to tears.
