Full title - UNCLE EARL DESERVED BETTER; CRITICAL ANALYSES OF BLAZE, A FILM WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY RON SHELTON, AND EARL K. LONG - THE SAGA OF UNCLE EARL AND LOUISIANA POLITICS, BY MICHAEL L. KURTZ AND MORGAN PEOPLES, WITH FURTHER COMMENTARY ON THE LAST OF THE RED-HOT PAPAS BY JACK B. MCGUIRE. First printing (per publisher's statement and number line upon copyright page) SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. [8], i-xvi, 1-259, [1], [48]pages. Paperback: H 23.25cm x L 15.5cm. Paper covers rubbed with some scuffs at edges; impression from removed paper clip at front cover's top center. Author's six-line black ink inscription "With best regards on | Uncle Earl's 180th Birthday. | Jack B. McGuire | The Earl K. Long Centennial | Winnfield, Louisiana | August 26, 1995" on the half-title page; red ink date stamp at title page's top right; interior pages are otherwise bright and clean. Binding retains some crispness. With concluding unpaged section (forty-eight pages) of b/w plates. Laid-in between front cover verso and half-title is a folded sheet of United States Representative Robert L. Livingston's congressional office stationery which is the only evidence of the book's provenance as it unfortunately lacks a Livingston inscription/signature. Republican Bob Livingston served as U.S. Representative from Louisiana's 1st District from 1977 to 1999 and chaired the House Appropriations Committee from 1995 to 1999 as well as being House Speaker-designate before his resignation from office.
