Light gray cloth boards with black lettering on spine gray pictorial dust jacket with red and blue lettering xiv 241 pp. Numerous bw plates. "Fully illustrated with photographs and drawings A Bearer of Tradition not only tells the story of one basketmaker's life - his values hopes and disappointments - but also explains the basketmaking process: the arduous search for just the right type of oak tree the demanding physical labor invovled in pulling the round rods and the final step of the weaving itself. Through her transcripts of many years of tape-recorded sessions Joyce allows Dwight Stump to tell his own story from the loss of his mother at an early age to his disappointment at exhausting the local education system after the eight grade through his years of financial struggle when he worked at an astonishing variety of jobs including employment as a farm laborer carpenter timber cutter sawmiller candy vendor cook well-digger constable Sunday school superintendent factory worker and plumber. The basketmaking was only a small part of his income until his years in retirement when he has been able to devote full time to his baskets and other traditional pursuits: herb-gathering collecting Indian artifacts 'water smelling' dowsing and crafting sisal rugs and canes." - dust jacket description.

193319197New York: The Macaulay Company. Fair. c.1933. First Edition. Hardcover. no dust jacket well-worn book soiling to covers and page edges ffep removed with consequent cracking to front hinge second ffep with blurb ripped almost in half and nearly detached; basically a reading copy only. A very scarce book the only novel "written" by Ms. Joyce following her 1930 quasi-memoir "Men Marriage and Me" reportedly ghostwritten by Wallace Thurman the most notorious man-chaser of her day. Clearly designed as a fictional riff on her own romantical hijinks the book tells a tale of "rich American wives who become bored with husbands who have learned nothing more than to pay their bills" and who attempt to alleviate their ennui by decamping for Paris and the Riviera to experience "the cynical degenerate life of European pleasure capitals with their dangerous traps for American woman." Well like they say: write what you know. The anonymous reviewer for the New York Times felt that the book began "on an almost painfully moralistic plane" before descending to "broad burlesque" which the critic felt was preferable: "None of the book can be taken seriously but it is much easier to read when the author herself ceases to take it seriously." Peggy's countless affairs and multiple and often profitable marriages provided rich fodder for columnists comedians and songwriters she was referenced in songs by Rodgers & Hart and Cole Porter for well over a decade until her celebrity began to fade in the mid-1930s. The year this book was published in fact might represent the apex of her career as she also appeared as herself in the Paramount film INTERNATIONAL HOUSE the last of her handful of movie appearances serving primarily as the butt of some of the film's wisecracks delivered by W.C. Fields and others. . The Macaulay Company hardcover books
