The Mauve Decade: 1926 First Edition, Gilded Age Novel With Dust Jacket

The Mauve Decade, Thomas Beer, Scarce 1926 First Edition Thus with original paper dust jacket intact, Part of the Star Series by Garden City Publishing Company, Preceded by Alfred A. Knopf's Limited and Trade First Edition. DJ in good/acceptable condition, having some minor chipping and tears, but the hardcover book itself is in VG shape.

In a book charged with vitality and lacking no detail that it was possible to gather from books, un published letter or journals, and word-of-mouth tadition, Thomas Beer presents the morals, politics, society, and literature of the 1880's and '90s in America - and dramatizes them all. Laced with witty anecdotes and epigrams, Beer's remarkable cultural history encompasses the wild panoply of the Gilded Age's last decade.
