195178342Philadelphia: Jewish Publication Society of America 1951. First edition of this modern classic of Jewish theology. Octavo original cloth. Near fine in the rare original dust jacket with some chips and rubbing. Jacket designed by Marshall Lee. Man Is Not Alone is a profound beautifully written examination of the ingredients of piety: how man senses God's presence explores it accepts it and builds life upon it. Abraham Joshua Heschel's philosophy of religion is not a philosophy of doctrine or the interpretation of a dogma. He erects his carefully built structure of thought upon foundations which are universally valid but almost generally ignored. It was Man Is Not Alone which led Reinhold Niebuhr accurately to predict that Heschel would "become a commanding and authoritative voice not only in the Jewish community but in the religious life of America."

A small octavo measuring 7 1/2 by 5 inches with very light rubbing to the cloth at the ends of the spine and foxing to the end sheets. Without a dust jacket. Written in pencil on the title page beneath the pseudonym Heclawa the following inscription appears: "From the author A. Lincoln Himmelwright" The upper edge of the title page bears the name of a previous owner in pencil. Also of interest facing page 172 is a photograph titled "The Return to Kendrick" of six horsemen surrounded by many men standing in front of a building. Someone has drawn in pencil an arrow connected to one of the horsemen to the author's name also written in pencil. Given how obscure the faces of anyone are in this photograph it would have been the author or someone with first hand knowledge to make this identification. 259 pages of text and appendices followed by a fold-out map of the "Clearwater Basin and adjoining Territory" of what is now Idaho and western Montana. Illustrated with a frontispiece eleven engravings eleven photographs and one line drawing. The author published this book using a pseudonym due to the controversy surrounding the discovery of this lost hunting party for leaving their cook George Colegate behind unable to walk and thinking he was close to death. The cook's body was located year later six miles from where he had been left to die. G. P. Putnam's Sons hardcover books
