1941123137New York: The Viking Press 1941. First edition of the companion volume to the 1941 documentary film written by Steinbeck and directed by Herbert Kline. Quarto original cloth illustrated with 136 photographs from the film. Near fine in a very good dust jacket. Photographs by Herbert Kline and Associates. Here the author of The Grapes of Wrath and director of Crisis and Lights Out in Europe combine their superb talents to tell the story of the coming of modern medicine to the natives of Mexico. There have been several notable examples of this pen-camera method of narration but The Forgotten Village is unique among them in that Steinbeck wrote the text before a single picture was shot. The book and the movie from which The Forgotten Village was made have a continuity and a dramatic growth not to be found in typical documentary films of the time. The Viking Press hardcover books
1942123039New York: The Viking Press 1942. First edition second issue of the Nobel Prize-winning author's classic work. Octavo original blue cloth. Near fine in a near fine price-clipped dust jacket. A sharp example. In 1941 Steinbeck met "with officials of the Foreign Information Service a newly formed unit of what would soon become the Office of Strategic Services to discuss the future of American counterpropaganda efforts. The Moon Is Down begun later the same month had its origins in Steinbeck's long-standing desire to contribute to these efforts. Steinbeck submitted a first finished draft of The Moon Is Down originally written as a play called 'The New Order' and set in a mid-sized town in the United States to agency officials; they turned it down concerned that the prospect of an occupied America might lower morale. Early in December Steinbeck began revising the work shifting the setting to a generic northern Europe and recasting the play as a novel; he sent his revised draft to Pascal Covici his editor at Viking later in December. The Moon Is Down as a novel appeared in book form in March 1942. A stage version opened on Broadway on April 9 1942 and was published by Dramatists Play Service in New York later in the same year" Library of America. The Viking Press hardcover books
