1932. First Edition. Signed. DARROW, Clarence. The Story of My Life. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1932. Octavo, original blue cloth, original dust jacket. $3200.First trade edition of Darrow's autobiography, signed by him on the half title.""When Clarence Darrow died in 1938 at the age of 81, few disputed that he was one of the great advocates of his generation. There were other lawyers in his lifetime who contributed more to the development of legal science, who rose to positions of greater influence, or who won larger financial rewards, but perhaps none who could equal Darrow's eloquence before a jury or who could match his record as a rough and tumble crusader for the common man"" (NYU, 1078). Darrow's ""Story of My Life is still must reading for all citizens who care about liberties and our legal system"" (Alan Dershowitz). With photographic frontispiece and nine pages of illustrations. First issue, with Scribner's ""A"" on copyright page. Preceded by the same year's signed limited edition. Book nearly fine; price-clipped dust jacket very good with light rubbing, tape repairs to verso.

New York: Parthenon / 20th Century Books, 1982. 2nd Printing. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 8x5x1. Signed by author. 2nd printing. Signed by author without inscription. Edges lightly rubbed with light cosmetic wear to surface of wrappers. 1982 Trade Paperback. 564 pp. Black wrappers with red titles. Details investigations of mafia activity in Rochester, New York, the subsequent trials, and the debacle that followed. It is a story of perjured detectives, gang wars, organized crime, overthrown convictions, imprisoned law enforcement officers and prosecutors, faulty police work, and corrupt officials. "Vincent 'Jimmy the Hammer' Massaro was hit by the mob. His death generated conspiracy prosecutions against what was alleged to be the top echelon of the organization in Rochester, New York. The testimony of informers, including two of the alleged triggermen, and detectives who surveilled mob meetings where Massaro's fate was plotted produced convictions. But there had been no surveillances. Detectives admitted perjuring themselves. Alleged mobsters were released from prison. A bloody gang war erupted, and Federal Indictments were returned against Detectives and Prosecutors. A saga of fabricated evidence and corruption unprecedented in the war against organized crime.

New York: Harper & Row, 1974. Book Club (BCE/BOMC). Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 8x5x1. Winkowski, Fred. Book club edition, gutter code 12 R. Jacket lightly rubbed and toned with minimal loss from spine ends. Binding tight, text clean and unmarked. 1974 Hard Cover. 338 pp. 8vo. An important work of utopian fiction by Le Guin, which won the Hugo, Nebula, and Locus awards, and was nominated for the John W. Campbell award. On the surface, Le Guin's story of the brilliant physicist Shevek is a tale of a futuristic world, and the struggle of the civilizations on two separate planets to reconcile with each other's way of life. Beneath the surface run deep undercurrents of meaning -- philosophical, religious, and scientific themes that transcend the story itself. Shevek's quest to reconcile two seemingly antithetical schools of theoretical physics is also the individual's quest to reconcile individuality with social behavior, identity with belonging, and freedom with responsibility. Colored by the Taoist sensibilities with which Le Guin has long been fascinated, the parallels drawn in The Dispossessed are simultaneously vivid and subtle -- the style of writing embodies the very ideas that Le Guin attempts to convey. Widely praised even beyond the usual literary circles of science fiction, The Dispossessed is a true masterpiece, the consummation of a unique and detailed vision of a distant world surprisingly similar to our own.
