ISBN-13: 9781584779650. ISBN-10: 1584779659. Hardcover. New. $39.95 The seminal 1919 NAACP study undertaken to promote awareness of the scope of lynching in the U.S. with a new introduction by the noted slavery historian Paul Finkelman. The data in this study offer the gruesome facts by number year state color sex offense in total 3224 of which 2522 were negroes and 702 were white and include a chronological list by state giving the victim's name place and offense for the years 1889-1918. Paul Finkelman's introduction puts these horrific figures into perspective. For instance he points out that "Many blacks were lynched because they had allegedly committed murders. However many of these 'murderers' were never tried and the evidence against them was speculative at best. But other blacks were lynched for no apparent reason or for some minor transgression of social and racial rules-as understood by whites-such as 'inflammatory language' 'insulting remarks to a white woman' 'being disreputable' or just 'race prejudice.' This last cause-racial prejudice-was indeed at the root of almost all lynchings of African-Americans."

195620505New York: E.P. Dutton & Co. Fair in Very Good dj. 1956. First American Edition. Hardcover. front hinge cracked rear hinge starting otherwise a decent copy with slight bumping to a couple of corners some age-toning to edges of text block; jacket a little edgeworn minor chipping at top of spine one tiny closed tear and associated creasing at top of front panel. Novel about "human beings caught in the turbulent maelstrom of war-torn Euroe of 1939 to 1950" specifically "ten men and women of different European nationality and political conviction who are thrust together in the melting pot of a D.P. camp." The book received the "René Scheckele Prize" touted in the jacket copy as "the most significant international literary prize for German-language authors" -- a slightly disingenuous claim since according to my research this prize was given out only once for this book and that was at least three years prior to the appearance of this edition. Maybe that explains why they misspelled it: correctly it was "Schickele." Note for whatever it's worth that the British edition had a singular title i.e. "They Fell from God's Hand." . E.P. Dutton & Co. hardcover books
