Anthology of three of Hatch's earlier novels published in the wake of the enormous success of his "My Man Godfrey" book and film blurbed on the front jacket panel "Author of.". The three are: "Five Days" 1933; "Spendthrift" 1936; and "A Couple of Quick Ones" 1928. Hatch was a pretty big deal in his day who wrote nearly 30 books and at one time was considered pretty much on a par as a comic novelist with P.G. Wodehouse with whom his work was often compared -- and yet as of February 2010 he has no Wikipedia entry of his own. This was the first book publication of "Spendthrift" by the way which also appeared as a novelette in Red Book Magazine the same year and was the source for the 1936 Raoul Walsh-directed film of the same name a racetrack comedy starring a young Henry Fonda. .

Two short novels with show-biz settings by the author of "My Man Godfrey" about "lovable people you like to read about." Now there's a switch! "The Golden Road" is about a young woman "who came to New York for a job but got instead a bandleader husband and all the complications of marriage to a selfish hard-drinking man." He must not be one of the aforementioned lovable people. Meanwhile the protagonist of the second book "Bright Star" is determined "to be an actress or die trying.

He died in 1976. Austin's career as a designer/illustrator began at age 6 when he stumbled into a stained glass shop at the end of his street. Austin was spellbound when he saw the workers "bathed in colored sunlight that streamed through the stained glass windows." His formal training was at Pratt Institute's School of Fine Arts from which he graduated in 1933.<br/><br/>During his career Austin provided design and illustration services to industrial firms public utilities and governmental agencies. He combined his love of color and illustration and became a prolific watercolorist in upstate New York. In the 1940s and 1950s he worked extensively with the New York State Historical Association in Cooperstown N.Y. where he provided design illustration display and documentation services for the Farmer's Museum and the Fenimore House now the Fenimore Art Museum.<br/><br/>His love of history and illustrative drawing lead to commissions for book illustration that included: Spooks of the Valley by Louis C. Jones 1948; The Story of Medicine by Joseph Garland M.D. 1949; Whistling Girls and Jumping Sheep by Edith E. Cutting 1951; The Golden Age of Homespun by Jared van Wagenen Jr. 1953; The Wee Tree's Christmas by James W. Hatch 1956; and Things That Go Bump in the Night by Louis C. Jones 1959.
