This is NOT the regular "trade" edition of Hatch's book but a teacher's edition which must have been produced in far less quantity.<br/><br/>"Erwin Hoyt Austin was born in Albany New York in 1912. 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. A Persian translation of Garland's The Story of Medicine was published at Tehran in 1962." University of Rochester Edward G.

NOISBN . light wear to cloth at base of spine mild age-toning to page edges a nice clean copy; jacket chipped at top of spine with loss of small part of title a little less so at base of spine general wear at edges and corners spine slightly tanned. 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. .
