When is a Book Not a Book? A Letter to the Editor of the "New York Herald Tribune Books" by Sinclair, Upton - 1937

n.p.: the author. 1937. First Edition; First Printing. Softcover. Wraps, i.e. a single leaf folded to make 4pp, folded in thirds for mailing; a few wrinkles, very good. When Sinclair heard that his book, The Flivver King, his second best seller, had been passed over for review because it was a pamphlet, and "not a book in any sense of the word," he fired off this rejoinder pointing how exclusionary was this policy toward the working class, the class for whom Sinclair was writing, issued in paperback so they would be affordable to workers. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 4 pp .
