Very Good+ in Very Good dj
Description
Durham NC: Moore Publishing Company. Very Good+ in Very Good dj. [1970]. First Edition. Hardcover. [a bit of foxing/staining and light wear along the top edge, no other significant wear; the jacket is also a bit stained along the edges and at the spine, but presents well in new mylar]. (B&W photos, facsimile of map) This book, about the real-life 1868 murder case that was the basis for the popular folk ballad about "Tom Dooley," written by a North Carolina native who was "is based on evidence researched from legal documents and newspaper articles contemporary with the murder. There are a good many surprises in store for the reader who has come to accept the folk versions of the tragedy, versions which [this book] refutes for all time." (So if you've been out there singing that catchy song and promulgating those legends -- well, hang down your head in shame.) From a contemporary review: "Mr. West presents the different versions of the ballad, the contradictory and largely mythical accounts of the murder, pointing up the discrepancies in the recorded versions. He has also reproduced the transcripts of both trials, together with pertinent contemporary newspaper articles." .

Very Good+ in Very Good- dj
Description
New York: Simon and Schuster. Very Good+ in Very Good- dj. 1962. First Edition. Hardcover. NOISBN . [light shelfwear to bottom edges, spine moderately turned; jacket shows wear at edges and corners, some scuffing to front panel, dog-earing at top of spine, tiny tear and associated creasing at bottom of front panel]. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author on the title page to fellow screenwriter Daniel Taradash: "To Dan / for the many lunches; / the good talk; the years / that passed too swiftly / Mike / December 1962." Blurbed as "an elegy on the many kinds of love: first, last, normal, abnormal, and -- impossible," this novel, set primarily in Beverly Hills and Paris, "challenges the sexual mores of the unprepared and unused young American [and] is equally relentless in its exposure of the weary oversophistication of the young French."
