The Lonely Warrior. New York: Harcourt, Brace and Co., (1922).

First Edition. "Story of Stacy Carrol is the story of thousands of young men who returned lonely and discouraged, many of whom, even after two years of civilian life, are not able to find their places. In the hero's struggle, we have presented the rush of American life: labor strikes, race riots, smooth reactionaries, parlor Bolsheviks, vivid flashes of men's heroism, dark glimpses of human greed, automobiles, more automobiles, hot, noisy roadhouses on winter nights, with jazz orchestras playing. And through it all, young men struggling, like soldiers fighting in the dark, for sanity and some decent way of adjustment to the chaos". Very uncommon labor themed novel even with the damaged dustjacket. Near Fine in Good only dustjacket, inch wide and five inch tall chip at mid front panel, quarter sized chip at lower spine end.

Price: $150.00
