Urbana and Chicago; University of Illinois Press, 2009. 23,5x16 cm. xxi, (1 blank), 376, (7, 1 blank) pp. Publisher's boards with printed dustjacket. Date of purchase in ink on front free endpaper. A fine copy. "Set against the drama of the Great Depression, the conflict of American race relations, and the inquisitions of the House Un-American Activities Committee, Cafe Society tells the personal history of Barney Josephson, proprietor of the legendary interracial New York City night clubs Cafe Society Downtown and Cafe Society Uptown and their successor, The Cookery.
