About This Item
New York: The Viking Press Book. Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 1938, x, 270pp. G+ in Fair, spine sunned, and chipped dj. Irwin Edman, born in 1896, was an educator, poet, and essayist. Not an autobiography, per se, but the author's observations on music, travel, and people he had met, including former students and teachers. Since he had been a Professor of Philosophy at Columbia University for many years, his narrative is naturally sprinkled with thoughts and ideas from his years of study and teaching in that discipline..
