Dust jacket with a soft crease/front flap. Another copy available. "Written with unprecedented access to her letters, journals, and unpublished articles, this is the definitive biography of a seminal figure in American film -- one of Entertainment Weekly's '100 Greatest Stars of All Time.' At the time of her death in 1993, Lillian Gish was universally recognized as a film legend. Now, Charles Affron reveals a life that, for decades, was cast in the shadow of self-generated myth. Using newly released papers at the New York Public Library, Affron fills the gaps left by Gish's selective memoirs and author-ized biographies, and shows how the actress carefully forged her public identity while keeping much of her life private. In a career that began in 1902 and lasted well into the 1980s and included such classic films as The Birth of a Nation and The Night of the Hunter, Gish went from child actress to legend. This account of Gish's life travels two parallel journeys: One traces her beginnings as a child actress in melodramas, through the birth of movies, the glory days of the studio system in Holly-wood and the coming of sound, the Broadway theater and television, to her final starring film appearance in 1987 the other follows a more personal itinerary, beginning with the comaraderies and rivalries of D. W. Griffith's troupe, the onset of her stardom, then on to the Algonquin Round Table and the international 'smart set.' Her scandalous lawsuit with her producer/fiance, her long affair with critic George Jean Nathan, and her controversial political activism are covered here in detail for the first time. Affron travels with the actress from studios in Hollywood to the stage in New York, from the loving, close relationship Gish had with her mother and her sister Dorothy to her devoted, often troubled relationship with Griffith, with whom she helped shape the development of narrative film. In splendid detail, Affron re-creates the burgeoning culture of moviemaking in the broad context of the arts in America. Along the way, the cast includes Sinclair Lewis, H. L. Mencken, Eugene O'Neill, Greta Garbo, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, and Bette Davis. / Charles Affron is a professor of French at New York University. He is the author of Sets in Motion, Cinema and Sentiment, Divine Garbo, and Star Acting: Gish, Garbo, Davis. He lives in New York City." - Publisher. Size: 8vo.

Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower worked more closely between 1945 and 1952 than any other two American presidents of the twentieth century. They were partners in changing America's role in the world and in responding to the challenge of a Soviet Europe, yet they are remembered more for the acrimony that ended their friendship. Both were men of character, intelligence, and principle, and as the nation learned in the 1950s, they could also hold a grudge. Drawing on letters, diaries, and interviews with close associates, this is the first examination of the warm friendship, bitter rupture, and eventual reconciliation between two remarkable Americans. From the author of The Eisenhowers: Reluctant Dynasty and Dark Horse comes a unique volume focusing exclusively on the relationship between Dwight D. Eisenhower and Harry S. Truman. Harry and 'Ike' grew up 150 miles apart in the heart of America. They met during World War II, when Truman became commander-in-chief after FDR's death. Together they would oversee not only the great Allied victory but also the restructuring of the U.S. military and the reconstruction of Europe. Together they would forge history's most successful alliance, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Their initial relationship was so respectful and warm that Truman offered to step aside in the 1948 presidential election if Ike would agree to run on the Democratic ticket. Preferring to remain out of politics, Eisenhower declined and instead became president of Columbia Uni-versity. Truman helped make Ike a wealthy man by granting him a special tax break for his memoirs. Eisenhower later prepared to remove himself from contention for the presidency in 1952 if Robert A. Taft supported Truman on NATO. But Ike's friendship with Truman would not survive the 1952 presidential campaign, and for nearly a decade the former allies were engaged in an epic feud. It was not until the funeral of John F. Kennedy that the two men put aside their differences and reestablished a semblance of their previous bond. In exploring the complexity of character, intelligence, and principle, Neal provides a fresh perspective on two giants of the twentieth century, and on the American presidency. / Steve Neal, political columnist for the Chicago Sun-Times, is the author of Dark Horse: A Biography of Wendell Willkie that was cited in 1984 by American Heritage as a notable book and selected by The Wall Street Journal as a 'critic's choice.' Neal has been described by the Philadelphia Inquirer as 'a consummate American political historian.' A former White House correspondent, he was the featured speaker at the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Eisenhower Library and in 1999 dedicated a stamp commemorating President Truman's great upset of 1948." - Publisher.

Hard Back. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. First Edition - 6th Printing Stated. 224 Pages Indexed. Tan cloth with flawless interior text pages. Dust jacket with $2.75 unclipped flap price. is a bit tattered but complete. Dust jacket is torn at bottom and top of spine and around edges. People today (1951) are desperately aware of their own personal difficulties and the need to conquer them. This book, written by an experienced advisor, combines religion and psychology in a method for self-understanding which is both penetrating and inspiring. The author says knowing ourselves is understanding our personal history, comprehending what we are in the light of how we have become that way. His thesis is that to understand ourselves we need a particular kind of attitude or approach both from our scientific knowledge and our religious aspiration. It is the purpose of this book to demonstrate what this means. Numerous cases and life histories are used, for not only do they provide a great deal of human interest, but they also help the reader to appreciate his own situation more intelligently-and therefore help him become more able to deal with it. Contents in Eleven Chapters: The World and Our selves, Grown-up Growth, Dated Emotions, Emotional Tensions, Knotty Conscience, Enterprising Freedom, Seasoned Sex, Taking Issue, Becoming an Ancestor, and Second Helpings. Plus Reading List, and References. Dr. Hiltner has had eighteen years' experience in relating psychology and religion: first in clinical pastoral training in a mental hospital, then as a university pastor, as an executive of the clinical pastoral training movement, as teacher of theological students about pastoral psychology. He was educated at Lafayette College and the Divinity School of the University of Chicago. Laid in is a four page brochure from the Pastoral Psychology Book Club touting Wayne Oates' book The Christian Pastor.

"In the bestselling tradition of In the Heart of the Sea, The Colony reveals the untold history of the infamous American leprosy colony on Molokai and of the extraordinary people who struggled to survive under the most horrific circumstances. In 1866, twelve men and women and one small child were forced aboard a leaky schooner and cast away to a natural prison on the Hawaiian island of Molokai. Two weeks later, a dozen others were exiled, and then forty more, and then a hundred more. Tracked by bounty hunters and torn screaming from their families, the luckless were loaded into shipboard cattle stalls and abandoned in a lawless place where brutality held sway. Many did not have leprosy, and most of those who did were not contagious, yet all were caught in a shared nightmare. The colony had little food, little medicine, and very little hope. Exile continued for more than a century, the longest and deadliest instance of medical segregation in American history. Nearly nine thousand people were banished to the colony, trapped by pounding surf and armed guards and the highest sea cliffs in the world. Twenty-eight live there still. John Tayman tells the fantastic saga of this horrible and hopeful place -- at one time the most famous community in the world -- and of the individuals involved. From the very first exile -- a gentle part-time lawyer trapped in an unjust ordeal beyond his imagination -- to the last remaining residents, the narrative is peopled by presidents and kings, cruel lawmen and pioneering doctors, and brave souls who literally gave their lives to help. A stunning cast includes the martyred Father Damien, Robert Louis Stevenson, Jack London, Mark Twain, Teddy Roosevelt, John Wayne, and more. The result is a searing tale of survival and bravery, and a testament to the power of faith, compassion, and heroism." - Publisher. Size: 8vo. Collectible.
