Hard Cover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. Reissue. Lacks slipcase. Sandglass Number XII-R: 45 laid in. 1955 Hard Cover. xvi, 280, [1] pp. Introduction by Van Wyck Brooks, illustrations by R.J. Holden. Originally published in The Atlantic Monthly in the mid-nineteenth century, these philosophical essays were written by one of…America's most celebrated thinkers. Poet and essayist Oliver Wendell Holmes drew upon his youthful experiences at a Boston boarding house to add color and humor to his reflections. As the autocrat, or ruler, of the communal table, Holmes converses with his fellow boarders, including the Landlady, the Professor, the Divinity Student, and the Schoolmistress. A vivid record of the era when Boston was the hub of America's intellectual and cultural scene, this book also offers timeless observations that range from the nature of conversation to the unexpected advantages of old age. Many of the essays are enhanced by the author's poems: "The Deacon's Masterpiece," "The Chambered Nautilus," "Contentment," and "The Living Temple," among others.

He continued to write and publish with Susan. In addition to pseudonym published with The Glow, Howard and Susan also published under the name, Arthur Reid. The pseudonyms are said to be sourced from family names, the first, Brooks Stanwood, a nod to Howard's first cousin, Mel Brooks. [citation needed]Together they wrote five suspense novels with the atmosphere of film noir. In spite of the death of his wife Susan in March 2005, Kaminsky continued to publish thrillers. His novel Angel Wings, published by Thomas & Mercer, was released in bookstores in April 2013. " (from Wikipedia). Illustrated by Wendell Minor (illustrator).

Contact seller5-star sellerSoft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. |vii + 45 pages. Good to Good minus. Paper covers replaced by plain library boards-and-tape binding. Light ex-library stamps, no markings on the interior pages. Lighthearted often close-to-comic study of 1940s bureaucrat language (often not that different from today). How to complicate t…he English language with overwrought words, how to use 5 words when 3 will do, and how to confuse with too much detail. Billed as a description of Federal language, but it also applies to all governments and corporations. (probably also applies to the world of booksellers, where 'Good' is not 'that' good. 'Fair' is rather wrecked, and 'poor' is near-toxic).
