First edition (per publisher's "First published in 1936" statement upon copyright page) INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY CO-AUTHOR JAMES FEIBLEMAN. 384 pages. Hardcover: H 22cm x L 14.5cm. Blue dust jacket strongly toned at spine; some rubbing and light toning/foxing to panels; some chipping, tears, and wear at edges; front flap's bottom corner is clipped. Blue cloth; bumping to spine head and boards' top fore-edge corners; spine's gilt lettering remains vibrant. Dark blue top edge; foxing and soiling to fore-edge and bottom edge. Endpapers toned/foxed. Co-author's two-line ink inscription "For Mary Rose and Brad | from Jimmy" on front free endpaper with past bookseller's adjacent pencil notations; also laid-in at front endpapers is sheet with pencil note "Signed to Roark Bradford & wife" (by an unknown hand). Interior leaves slightly bumped at their top fore-edge corners but otherwise mostly clean. Binding is firm. Short story writer and novelist Roark Bradford resided in New Orleans in 1930s-1940 where he was an editor for the New Orleans Times-Picayune and, during World War II, was at New Orleans' lakefront U.S. Naval Reserve Bureau of Aeronautics Training.

Feibleman joined Tulane's philosophy department in 1945 and retired from the university in 1969. Likewise Julius Weis Friend was a New Orleanian and was editor of the city's renowned but short-lives literary magazine "The Double-Dealer.".…
