hardcover. Dust Jacket Condition: no DJ. 8vo 843pp. from editors' introduction: "The editors hope that The American Caravan for 1927 will prove to the public and to the authors what it has proven to themselves: an affirmation of the health of the young American literature, and an earnest of the eventual formation of a guild for the cooperative publication of its works. Such a practical enterprise must be the effect of the growing solidarity among American writers, the sense of a common concern, means and object, at the root of these pages." Extra S/H for size/weight. #01772. Book VG-: age wear to boards and spine, spine sunned and chipped, hinge starting at title page, text clean, binding intact.

Harry Crosby's 1929 diary describes a party where "Kay Boyle made fun of Hart Crane and he was angry and flung The American Caravan into the fire because it contained a story of Kay Boyle's (he forgot it had a poem of his in it)". That would have been The Second American Caravan (Boyle wasn't in the first.). With Hart Crane's bookplate in state F: (white gummed paper, measuring 3 1/8 in. x 4 3/8 in.) on the front paste-down end-paper, applied (by Samuel Loveman) after Crane's death, probably in the mid-1950s. [See K. Lohf, "The Library of Hart Crane," Proof, Vol. 3, 1973]. Contains the first publication of his poem "Ave Maria" on pp. 804-806, signed "Hart Crane" at the end of the poem in blue ink. This book was from Hart Crane's library and was handed down to Betty Crane Madden and given by her to Vivian Pemberton, Emeritus Professor of English at Kent State University and a recognized authority on Hart Crane.
