Description
New York and London: Harper & Brothers Publishers, 1923. Original printed wrappers. [20], 546 pp, with half title. From the AMERICANIZATION STUDIES series directed by Allen T. Burns. Bound in original publisher's cloth. Several light wrapper chips, Near Fine. Claghorn [1864-1938] was a pioneering woman sociologist, author, reformer, and economist. "In her 1923 book, The Immigrants' Day in Court, Claghorn argued that the legal aid available at the time was inadequate, focusing primarily on legal minutiae rather than on understanding the actual issues affecting their clients, and that it inappropriately excluded female attorneys from serving. She also reported on the injustice caused by inadequate translation for non-English-speaking legal clients, and on the sexual harassment of female workers by job placement workers and supervisors. Writing about this book in 2003, British historians Kristofer Allerfeldt and Jeremy Black called it 'the one significant contemporary study of the immigrant and the American legal system'." ["Kate Claghorn", Wikipedia.] She has been called "the Progressive Era Paladin of Immigrants' Rights" [Johnson, Marianne; Fiorito, Luca (2024, January 15), "Kate Holladay Claghorn: Progressive Era Paladin of Immigrants' Rights", Website of Social Science Research Network (SSRN), accessed January 2026.].

Revere, Pa: Woolmer Brotherson Ltd, 1983. cloth, dust jacket. Lowry, Malcolm. 8vo. cloth, dust jacket. xiv, 183 pages. First edition. Fine in fine jacket.

Volcano has gone into more than 40 printings in its various English language editions, as well as having been translated into 19 other languages. Under the Volcano was the centerpiece of a work in progress to be called The Voyage that Never Ends, a work that Lowry did not live to finish. When it first appeared in 1947, it was hailed everywhere as a major publishing event. The bibliography describes all of Lowry's books and pamphlets, listing every printing of each edition. Each of the book entries is illustrated with photographs of dust jackets, title pages, and copyright pages. There are 23 listings for contributions to books, 224 for contributions to periodicals, including descriptions of all of Lowry's contributions to his school paper, and 73 foreign language books and periodicals.
