The Harry Golden Omnibus [*SIGNED*]

London: Cassell & Company Ltd.. Near Fine in Very Good+ dj. 1962. First Edition. Hardcover. [minor shelfwear, light age-toning to edges of text block; jacket a bit edgeworn, light soiling to rear panel]. SIGNED by the author on the ffep (signature only). A selection of pieces from the popular Jewish-American writer and newspaper publisher's three best-selling collections of essays and commentaries (some of which are short enough to fit several to the page). "Harry Golden's brand of personal journalism, which combines the approaches of the crusading newspaper editors of the nineteenth century and the familiar essayists of literary weeklies, has nevertheless a mid-twentieth century flavour in its sharpness and ability to come to the point. A witty, independent, nostalgic, and forward-looking writer, his essays range widely over the human situation, from reminiscences of boyhood on the Lower East Side and immigrant Jewish life to sharp political comment." (This collection was apparently published only in England.) Signed by Author .
