Description
1960. New York antiwar protest press archive documenting mass demonstrations, sit-down actions, police removals, and public opposition to war and militarization from the early 1960s through the mid-1970s. The archive records the city as a major stage for peace activism, where demonstrators used marches, occupations, and passive resistance to challenge nuclear escalation, the Vietnam War, and later military policy. Press captions and agency markings connect the scenes to New York newspaper circulation and editorial handling. Photo archive of 10 silver gelatin press photographs, each approximately 8" x 10", New York, 1960-1975. Crowds fill public streets and open spaces beneath signs reading "Coast-to-Coast Anti-War Protests," while demonstrators sit packed shoulder to shoulder in a large outdoor gathering. Police officers drag and lift seated demonstrators from sidewalks, building entrances, and protest lines; one caption references "peaceful resistance" and a sit-down demonstration in front of the Atomic Energy Commission office after President Kennedy announced his decision to resume nuclear testing. Additional captions and verso markings reference New York civil defense, police department files, state fair grounds, and antiwar demonstrations, with Associated Press, Wide World, and other press stamps, crop marks, publication notes, and retained clipping captions. The archive traces the changing sociopolitical climate of American dissent from Cold War nuclear protest into the confrontational antiwar politics of the Vietnam era and its aftermath. New York's sidewalks, government offices, and civic spaces became recurring sites where demonstrators tested the limits of public assembly and police authority. Agency stamps, clipping attachments, editorial crop marks, and dated verso notations preserve the photographs' use as working news material rather than later commemorative prints. Light handling wear, editorial markings, caption attachments, toning, and scattered corner wear from press use. Overall in good condition.

Green Gate Farm Antiquarian Books (United States)
Description
An octavo, bound in original olive green cloth with gilt spine title and pictorial pastedown on the upper cover. Jessie King did the illustrations for this book by taking her watercolors and paper with her early in the morning to capture the play of light on the Seine. It was first published by Gowan and Gray in 1911, with the French language edition following in 1912. There were only 1,000 copies of the book printed, far fewer with the French text than the English. Eighteen color plates by King capture her affection for the city she and E.A. Taylor loved nearly as much as their village home of Kirkcudbright. There is some light browning and foxing, else a fine copy of a scarce title. The color cover illustration, different than the one used on the English edition, was lacking and has been supplied in facsimile. The book beautifully captures the artist's unique combination of technical skill and romantic whimsy. (White, 92, describing only a French text edition in paper wrappers).

New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons. Very Good+. 1954. First Edition. Hardcover. (no dust jacket) [modest browning to spine cloth, slight fading along several edges]. (B&W photographs, graphics) "An alphabetical anthology of unique human beings; a portrait gallery in words and photographs of a hundred living people whom we, its self-appointed curators, both admire. Here are no lawyers, no heads of state, no professional footballers [because] these callings, admirable as they are, lie outside the range of our immediate interests. Honesty dictated that our bias be towards actors, actresses, writers, painters, dancers and clowns. One politician has slipped in; so has a horse; but these are exceptions. We sought, as we made our choice, certain qualities; chief among them were craftsman ship, energy, elegance, wit, and a dash of the unpredictable." Further: "The authors would like to make it clear that Mr. Beaton had no hand in the text, and that Mr. Tynan took none of the photographs." Tynan's commentaries range in length from several pages to, in some instances, a single short paragraph; and Beaton's photos, of course, make everyone look oh-so-beautiful. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this moderately heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.**** .

Description
New York: Library of America, 2024. Reissue. Trade Paperback. Fine. 4x0x7. 2024 reissue. Brand new from publisher. An exceptional copy. xxxix, 119 pp. Introduction by David Bromwich. More urgent than ever, two landmark essays by the legendary political theorist on the greatest threat to democracy. "No one," Hannah Arendt observed, "has ever counted truthfulness as a political virtue." But why do politicians lie? What is the relationship between political lies and self-delusion? And how much organized deceit can a democracy endure before it ceases to function? Fifty years ago, the century's greatest political theorist turned her focus to these essential questions in two seminal essays, brought together here for the first time. Her conclusions, delivered in searching prose that crackles with insight and intelligence, remain powerfully relevant, perhaps more so today than when they were written. In "Truth and Politics," Arendt explores the affinity between lying and politics, and reminds us that the survival of factual truth depends on the testimony of credible witnesses and on an informed citizenry. She shows how our shared sense of reality - the texture of facts in which we wrap our daily lives - can be torn apart by organized lying, replaced with a fantasy world of airbrushed evidence and doctored documents. In "Lying in Politics," written in response to the release of the Pentagon Papers, Arendt applies these insights to an analysis of American policy in Southeast Asia, arguing that the real goal of the Vietnam War - and of the official lies used to justify it by successive administrations - was nothing other than the burnishing of America's image. In his introduction, David Bromwich (American Breakdown: The Trump Years and How They Befell Us) engages with Arendt's essays in the context of her other writings and underscores their clarion call to take seriously the ever-present threat to democracy posed by lying.
