Forward From Babylon. New York: Farrar and Rinehart, (1932).

First American Revised Edition (first published in 1921 without revisions by Moffat, Yard and Company). Harry Brown dustjacket art. A revised edition of the author's first book. Jewish themed novel "less tinged by idealism. He renders the tragedy more poignant by presenting old Reb Morrash and his companions as the bigots that they are. He gives us the extra agony of their efforts to acclimatize themselves spiritually to the strange atmosphere of the Gentile world, and shows too the nobility of their lives, their astonishing fidelity to principle in a world grown slack with self-indulgence". Near Fine in Very Good plus dustjacket, few shallow edge chips.

Price: $165.00
