Hardcover. Condition: Good. Bound volume of The Atlantic Monthly, January through June, 1918. Unbroken run of six issues. Notably, the Atlantic focused strongly on WWI topics during this year, publishing some of the most erudite and influential essays and first-hand accounts of the causes and consequences of WWI in print. Each issue features numerous WWI, in-depth articles. Some involve intellectual debate, analysis, etc., unmatched by any other publication, and others detail the specific, often horrifying experiences of participants. 1918 ushered in the war's most intense fighting, accounting for millions of deaths, largely in the German Spring offensive and late in the Fall Allied offensive, which ended in Germany's defeat.

Edward Newton, Theodore Roosevelt and many more. Bound in dark-green buckram with gilt lettering to spine panel and decorated endpapers. 864 numbered pages. 9 1/8" x 6 1/2".

Sedgwick replies to an inquiry from lecture tour manager James B. Pond of the Pond Bureau, giving him the Tahiti address of James Norman Hall, author of "Mutiny on the Bounty". "But I think [Hall] would love the platform about as well as the Devil loves Holy Water. He is doing very well at his books, and I prophesy that you won't budge him."American editor Ellery Sedgwick [1872-1960] came from a leading family of Stockbridge, Mass. His ancestors established a tradition of literary achievement, which was carried on by authors Catherine Maria Sedgwick and Ellery's brother Henry Dwight Sedgwick III. After graduating from Groton School and Harvard University, Sedgwick taught at Groton for a couple of years and worked as an editor in New York City. He returned to Boston in 1909 to be editor of the Atlantic Monthly and president of the Atlantic Monthly Company. He was elected to the National Institute of Arts and letters in 1915.
