Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good- dj. Illustrated by (dj design) Woods (illustrator). First Edition. [a good solid book, some foxing to all edges of the text block but no significant wear; jacket has some visible wear to the upper extremities, a couple of tiny tears along the bottom edge, and a half-inch ragged closed tear at the top rear hinge; there is also some internal discoloration to the jacket, with some visible bleed-through on the flaps (but not the exterior panels)]. (B&W photographs) Taylor's entertaining, myth-making biography of The Great Man, the first to appear after Fields's death on Christmas Day of 1946, and for many years the standard work on the comedian -- and, unfortunately, the source of a some misinformation as well. James Curtis, author of the best biography of Fields to date (published in 2003), explains how Taylor had some significant advantages -- notably the blessing of Gene Fowler, Fields's longtime friend, access to material given to Fowler by Fields himself, and contacts arranged by Fowler with various other Fields associates -- but in the end produced a book that "did much to reinforce the impression that Fields was largely the character he portrayed onscreen. Denied access to his subject's scrapbooks and correspondence [and without the Fields family's cooperation], Taylor also made some horrendous blunders with regard to the historic record. Nevertheless, [the book] was a swift and amusing read by a talented portraitist, and it remained in print, in one form or another, for more than half a century." [Quoted without permission from Curtis's excellent book. Thanks, Jim!] NOTE that this, the trade edition, is about 1/4" taller and 1/8" thicker than the book club edition.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good-. Illustrated by Robert Hill Taylor (illustrator). 1st Edition; 1st Printing. B&W Illustrations; This book is in Very Good condition and has a Very Good- dust jacket. The book and its contents are in generally clean, bright condition. There is some light bumping and rubbing to the spine ends and corners of the book covers. The text pages are clean and bright. The dust jacket has some edge wear, rubbing and small edge tears to the spine ends and corners. There are spots of ground-in dirt and foxing, mostly to the edges and joints of the dust jacket." Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub[a] (c. 1137 4 March 1193) , commonly known as Saladin, [b] was a Kurdish commander and political leader. He was the founder of the Ayyubid dynasty and the first sultan of both Egypt and Syria. An important figure of the Third Crusade, he spearheaded the Muslim military effort against the Crusader states in the Levant. At the height of his power, the Ayyubid realm spanned Egypt, Syria, Upper Mesopotamia, the Hejaz, Yemen, and Nubia. Alongside his uncle Shirkuh, a Kurdish mercenary commander in service of the Zengid dynasty, Saladin was sent to Fatimid Egypt in 1164, on the orders of the Zengid ruler Nur ad-Din. With their original purpose being to help restore Shawar as the vizier to the teenage Fatimid caliph al-Adid, a power struggle ensued between Shirkuh and Shawar after the latter was reinstated."

The irreverent, thumb to nose columnist again collected and having his say on this, that and many another thing. Ruark can really go to town, whether it be on food or drink, burlesque, sports writing, whether it is life in the country, or women or politics, barrooms or weddings, personalities or gadgets, and he manages to swing a mean, as well as a funny line. His newspaper following is sizable, and in assembling these columns, several on similar subjects have been grouped under one heading, which makes for a more continuous, coherent flow of ideas. There's a definite bite to his ideas, a rowdy corrective quality to his opinions, and a happy exaggeration in his style. The combination of illustrations by R. Taylor is quite in tone with the off center, often zany quality of this type of writing. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.
