Description
Salt Lake City, 1900. 2 pages (front and back) [20 cm x 12 cm] / [8" x 5"] In this letter Young is seeking the whereabouts of a collection of books he purchased in New York City. "Salt Lake City - Utah. Oct. 29, 1900. Miss Tice Lynch 45 Williams St. New York. Gentleman: You should have his parcels of books for me, sent from Maggs Bros, 159 Chamberlain St. Pond Green, London. Will you kindly send them to Bangs + Co. 91 Fifth Avenue and mark them 'To be included with R.B. Shepard's books for shipment to Salt Lake City.' Advise me of any + hence you may be at in sending them to Messrs. Bangs + Co. I shall be glad to remit. Yours very respectfully Alfales Young." An excellent letter that connects three legendary book shops: Maggs (London), Bangs (New York), and Shephard (Salt Lake City) with Brigham Young's family. Alfales Young (1853-1920) was the only son of Brigham Young and Eliza Burgess. He graduated from the University of Michigan Law School and practiced in Salt Lake. He also worked as the telegraph editor for the Salt Lake Herald and the Deseret News, and was a noted book collector and reader, and was active for many years in the Wasatch Literary Association.

Near Fine
Description
Garden City NY: Doubleday, Page & Company. Near Fine. 1925. First Edition. Hardcover. (no dust jacket) [sharp-looking copy with only minor shelfwear]. Yezierska's second novel (and fourth published book), "a struggle between a father of the Old World and a daughter of the New," begins on New York's Lower East Side, where the immigrant Polish Smolinsky family lives on the edge of poverty in a Hester Street tenement. The Orthodox Jewish father's strict adherence to his religious practices -- including the rejection of his three elder daughters' suitors in favor of marriages he arranges for them for his financial benefit -- and his lousy business sense (which results in him being swindled when he buys a small grocery store in Elizabeth, New Jersey) cause numerous tensions and rifts within his family. His daughter Sara, although she tries to stick it out by helping with her father and mother in the grocery store, finally grows frustrated by his stubbornness and decides to escape his controlling ways by moving back to New York City and getting a college degree in order to become a teacher. She succeeds in landing a teaching position, but eventually finds herself drawn back into the orbit of her family due to her father's various misfortunes (illness, a bad second marriage after his wife's death). As with most of Yezierska's fiction, there are strong autobiographical elements. Hanna 3924. ***This book is among the nearly 150 items offered in ReadInk's new Catalog Number 4, "Booking Passage: Books on the Immigrant Experience."

Very Good
Description
New York: Alfred A. Knopf. Very Good. 1931. First Edition. Hardcover. (lacking the original dust jacket, but encased in a professionally-made facsimile reproduction of same; see 2nd image posted with this listing) [modest shelfwear, light dust-soiling and age-toning to edges of text block, diagonal wrinkle in front cover cloth]. A hard-boiled boys' adventure yarn by this "Black Mask" stalwart, "a fast-moving story which describes the war crossing of a group of pilots on a transport." Written in the first person, it obviously derived (as did several of his other books) from the author's experiences as a fighter pilot in World War I: "The story begins in a flying field in Texas where Lieutenant Whitfield won his commission and ends with his first flight in France." NOTE again that this book bears a FACSIMILE dust jacket, to serve the dual purpose of protecting the book from further wear and enhancing its appearance on the shelf; its presence has not been factored in to our pricing. .
