Synopsis Frank Harris: a Study in Black and White by : A. I. Tobin
To throw light on the motives & movements of a conspicuous literary figure of the last generation, two friends of Harris's from Chicago, Dr. Tobin, his 'authorized' biographer, & Mr. Gertz, an attorney who was Harris's agent in the latter years of his life have undertaken to sift the truth about Harris & to present a portrait of him that will reconcile the most shocking incongruities of his character with some of the fine performances of his pen. "Messrs. Tobin & Gertz have done a very good life of him. With great skill, they disentangle the facts from the cobwebs of fancy that he spun. They tell his story simply, clearly & honestly."--AMERICAN MERCURY. Illus.

Synopsis Bookleggers and Smuthounds by : Jay A. Gertzman
Between the two world wars, at a time when both sexual repression and sexual curiosity were commonplace, New York was the center of the erotic literature trade in America. The market was large and contested, encompassing not just what might today be considered pornographic material but also sexually explicit fiction of authors such as James Joyce, Theodore Dreiser, and D.H. Lawrence; mail-order manuals; pulp romances; and "little dirty comics." Bookleggers and Smuthounds vividly brings to life this significant chapter in American publishing history, revealing the subtle, symbiotic relationship between the publishers of erotica and the moralists who attached them—and how the existence of both groups depended on the enduring appeal of prurience. By keeping intact the association of sex with obscenity and shameful silence, distributors of erotica simultaneously provided the antivice crusaders with a public enemy. Jay Gertzman offers unforgettable portrayals of the "pariah capitalists" who shaped the industry, and of the individuals, organizations, and government agencies that sought to control them. Among the most compelling personalities we meet are the notorious publisher Samuel Roth, "the Prometheus of the Unprintable," and his nemesis, John Sumner, head of the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice, a man aggressive in his pursuit of pornographers and in his quest for a morally united—and ethnically homogeneous—America.

Synopsis The New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature: Volume 4, 1900-1950 by : George Watson
More than fifty specialists have contributed to this new edition of volume 4 of The Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. The design of the original work has established itself so firmly as a workable solution to the immense problems of analysis, articulation and coordination that it has been retained in all its essentials for the new edition. The task of the new contributors has been to revise and integrate the lists of 1940 and 1957, to add materials of the following decade, to correct and refine the bibliographical details already available, and to re-shape the whole according to a new series of conventions devised to give greater clarity and consistency to the entries.
