Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Second Edition. In this book "I have tried, with admittedly humble resources, to explain what the Du Ponts and their extraordinary history mean for American society, its past and its future." - Foreword. "Prentice-Hall drastically slashed the print run and advertising budget of this book, despite it having met its advance sales target and won wide acceptance in national reviews. The almost immediate (and reportedly unprecedented) cancellation by BOMC (Book of the Month Club) of a book under such circumstances would have a chilling impact on most publishers, and Prentice-Hall was no exception. They allowed the book to go out of stock while demand for it remained high, and ultimately let it go out of print altogether." - Foreword. This was discovered only after the author took Du Pont and Prentice-Hall to federal court. One of twenty-three books selected for inclusion on the "Forbidden Bookshelf", a project of Mark Crispin Miller, Nancy Howell Lee, and others, to "look deep into the darker trends and episodes in US history". 968 pages. Footnotes. Index. Black and white photographic plates. Unmarked with average wear. Unclipped dust jacket now in glossy new archival-grade protection. A worthy example of this important and revealing study. ; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; Du Pont Dupont Family E.I.
