Jacket design by Jean Carlu. The revolutionary journalist's major work a memoir of her twelve years as a correspondent on the front lines of both the Chinese revolution and the Second Sino-Japanese War from 1929 to 1942. Smedley 1892-1950 was a prolific left journalist and probable spy known for her active support of Chinese and Indian revolutionary causes and for her many writings on Maoist China. <br /> <br /> The laid-in letter of about 250 words is dated Dec. 26 and addressed to a young Army lieutenant from Michigan Eugene S. Brewer. Smedley discusses the recent U.S. Presidential elections stating that she voted for Roosevelt despite disagreeing with "many things Roosevelt has done and still does.but I was afraid of Dewey and his rotten reactionaries. Now I grow more and more afraid of Churchill and it would be a godsend if he'd fall dead or if someone would kindly bump him off." She comments on British policy in India: "As long as Nehru remains in prison I have no hearing for any agent of the British" - and concludes with a description of her work for China relief "raffling off things for 2 weeks to aid cultural workers in Chung King.I'm tired tramping the streets selling chances for 10¢! So much work for so little." <br /> <br /> Eugene S. Brewer 1914-2001 was a 1935 graduate of the University of Michigan. He won a 1938 Avery Hopwood Prize for a proletarian novel apparently never published "Some Brass and No Groceries." After a brief and apparently unremarkable scriptwriting career in Hollywood Brewer returned to his home town of Owosso Michigan where he was for many years a county planner and surveyor. Brewer's connection to Smedley is uncertain but likely dated from his student days at Michigan. Alfred A. Knopf unknown

1959185404Beijing: "Beijing" huace bianji weiyuanhui 1959. The splendours of a socialist capital First edition deluxe issue published to mark the tenth anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Though unmarked as such this copy was owned by Solomon Adler one of the select group of Westerners permanently resident in China during the Mao era. The celebratory photobooks published in 1959 - equivalents were produced for Shanghai and other major cities - were predominantly distributed as gifts to party officials and foreign VIPs the latter group also receiving brochures containing translations of the captions. Among the many plates is an impressive folding panorama of Tiananmen Square and its vicinity showing the Great Hall of the People and the history museums which were all built in record time by a state keen to display communism's accomplishments. Immediately following the title page is a high-quality reproduction of Dong Xiwen's famous painting Kaiguo dadian "The Founding Ceremony". The work was repainted several times over the course of the 1950s as several party leaders present at the founding ceremony fell out of favour with Mao. An economist by training Adler 1909-1994 worked in the US in the 1940s but later fell under suspicion during the "red scare." After a period spent at Cambridge University he moved to China in 1962 living in Beijing until his death three decades later and working on the official Chinese translation into English of Mao's Selected Works.
