A collection of White's short, inimitable essays--most from his column in Harper's and a few from The New Yorker. White provides a new foreword, which puts his short and thoughtful essays into the context of the then-ongoing Second World War. This is one of an unspecified number of copies signed by the author on a tipped-in leaf. Offsetting pp. 12-13 from a prior bookmark; rubbing to edges, with the front hinge starting. An uncommon issue of a classic book of essays by White, perhaps the most highly regarded American essayist and the writer whose voice was the most critical in defining the urbane humanism that characterized The New Yorker, setting the tone for the best of American literature in the 20th century. A very good copy, lacking the dust jacket. Unless otherwise noted, our first editions are first printings.
