Excellent condition overall with some toning small chips and various wear to margins but overall quite well preserved. Near Fine. Isabel and Monroe Smith a married couple from Northfield Massachusetts started the American Youth Hostel movement in 1933 after gaining inspiration from Richard Schirrman’s German Hosteling Organization. The movement grew quickly with thirty hostels operating throughout New England within the first year. The first hostel was the Northfield Chateau a large mansion on Birnham Road that was eventually demolished in 1963. The network of chaperoned hostels created the opportunity for safe bicycle-based travel as shown in the posters offered here. <br /> <br /> Offered here are three early posters from the movement designed by Isabel Smith each with her signature in the image. All posters are variations on the cycling theme. One of them states that “When the grand day’s bicycling is done… no fare can compare with the Royal ‘Hostellers’ Own.†Smith’s design aesthetic is quite accomplished and we are surprised to find no examples of these in institutional collections. Overall a visually compelling group uncommon. Litho Inc. / American Youth Hostels unknown

198138858New York: United Jewish Appeal 1981. First edition. Softcover. g. Small folio. 23 1pp. Original illustrated wrappers. Laid in a hand-signed typed letter from Judith Manelis announcing the publication of this work and dated May 29 1981. The music literature and art of the Holocaust speak to us with special poignancy.

At the age of twelve an orphan named Will Cooper is given a horse a key and a map and is sent on a journey through the wilderness to the edge of the Cherokee Nation the uncharted white space on the map. Will is a bound boy obliged to run a remote Indian trading post. As he fulfills his lonesome duty Will finds a father in Bear a Cherokee chief and is adopted by him and his people developing relationships that ultimately forge Will's character. All the while his love of Claire the enigmatic and captivating charge of volatile and powerful Featherstone will forever rule Will's heart. In a distinct voice filled with both humor and yearning Will tells of a lifelong search for home the hunger for fortune and adventure the rebuilding of a trampled culture and above all an enduring pursuit of passion. As he comes to realize "When all else is lost and gone forever there is yearning. One of the few welcome lessons age teaches is that only desire trumps time." Will Cooper in the hands of Charles Frazier becomes a classic American soul: a man devoted to a place and its people a woman and a way of life all of which are forever just beyond his reach. Thirteen Moons takes us from the uncharted wilderness of an unspoiled continent across the South up and down the Mississippi and to the urban clamor of a raw Washington City. Throughout Will is swept along as the wild beauty of the nineteenth century gives way to the telephones automobiles and encroaching railways of the twentieth. Steeped in history rich in insight and filled with moments of sudden beauty Thirteen Moons is an unforgettable work of fiction ; "Thirteen Moons brings this vanished world thrillingly to life.One of the great Native American and American stories and a great gift to all of us from one of our very best writers." --Kirkus Reviews ; Charles Frazier was born in 1950 and grew up in western North Carolina. Frazier received his bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of North Carolina and his doctorate in American literature from the University of South Carolina. He taught at the University of Colorado and North Carolina State University before writing his first novel Cold Mountain. He based the bestselling book on true stories written by his great-great-grandfather in journals during the Civil War period. Cold Mountain won the National Book Award. His other novels are Thirteen Moons and Nightwoods. He made the bestseller list in 2018 with his title Varina. ; Note this is NOT the limited edition ; FINE/FINE <br/> <br/> New York : Random House, c2006. hardcover
