The prize went instead to Edith Wharton for The Age of Innocence. In 1926 Lewis refused the Pulitzer when he was awarded it for ARROWSMITH. Harcourt, Brace and Howe hardcover

FIRST EDITION SINCLAIR LEWIS IN DUSTJACKET. This book was quite well produced for a Depression Era printing and has thus survived much better than is typical for American books of the '30s. In this "living pageant of our times" Lewis presents the unending American pursuit of perfection and success through a multigenerational family of hoteliers. As we follow them from a tiny rural guest house to one of the largest hotels in the world we are shown a great panorama of America filled with both sympathy and vitriol.
