Anthology

New York: E.P. Dutton & Co., Inc., 1964. Rust color textured paper on boards. Volume is brown on the bottom page edges. Minor spot on the rear cover. Now in protective cover. From the Prefactory Notes: "This book was written on a wave of excitement after my second sumer in Greece in 1958, and re-written hardly less excitedly during the next two years after furthur visits. My idea was the way the books I loved came newly alive in the sun, and how there I found the way to new books, quotations clustering about themes, associations and juxtapositions which seemed magical, symbols, serendipities. Not always could I remember where I had picked up a verse or a line. Some jottings came from years ago." . Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. more information

This famous book was the first anthology of American Indian prose and poetry, and reveals that aboriginal America had a body of primitive literature worthy to rank beside those of other continents and races, and demonstrated the American Indian to be 'an outstanding poet, a singer of exquisite songs, a maker of sublime prayers, dangerous spells, and a judicious teller of tales and mythic stories.'

The intention has been to include stories which are representative of the Devil in various cultures, briefly tracing at least some of the threads and symbols which have been woven into a hellish pattern." .

"The writings, drawings, photographs and cartoons in this collection were never intended originally to please civilian tastes. They were made to order for the pages of Yank, The Army Weekly, by enlisted men on active duty in the armed forces who wanted to please other enlisted men and nobody else. Because it is written by and for enlisted men, the material in this book is nothing more or less than soldier shop talk. But if the meaning and significance of shop talk is sometimes elusive, an outsider can often find in it a certain compensating flavor of authenticity and intimacy. We feel that this anthology will give the civilian a clearer and more penetrating picture of life in the United Stsates Army during this war then he could get from most of the books thsat have been written to date on the subject. Certainly nobody is better qualified to describe life in the United States Army than the American solders who are living it.". First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. more information
