About This Item
Gainesville, Florida: University of Florida Press, 1999. First Edition, First Printing . Hardcover. New/New. Number line in the work reads as follows: 04 03 02 01 00 99 6 5 4 3 2 1. 628 pages, including an index. Coming to the attention of Perkins was the most important event in Rawlings's literary life. To become his protegee was beyond her wildest imagination. That she even knew who Perkins was when she first wrote to Scribners is in itself unlikely. Perkins had already guided Fitzgerald and Hemingway to literary success, and when he took Rawlings under his wing, he was developing the talents of Thomas Wolfe. The work explains how Max Perkins earned his reputation as the most gifted editor of all time. Volume itself has red covers with sharp silver lettering on the spine. Dust jacket is protected in an archival quality cover. Dj is not price-clipped! A very nice, new, copy; available for immediate shipment, carefully packed in a sturdy box!
