Book
Hardcover. Condition: Good. First LOA Edition. H. L. Mencken was the most provocative and influential journalist and cultural critic in twentieth-century America. In this volume and a companion, The Library of America presents all six series of Prejudices (1919-1927), the iconoclastic collections that helped blast American literature out of its complacency and into a new age of frankness and maturity. The fantastic linguistic inventiveness, full-bodied humor, and unwaveringly fierce courage of his journalism made him a liberating force for his contemporaries.The final three series show Mencken at his lacerating best, taking on targets from religious fundamentalism to the dismal state of higher education. Included are such famous essays as The Hills of Zion, his report on the local atmosphere surrounding the Scopes trial in 1925; In Memoriam: W.J.B., his relentless postmortem on William Jennings Bryan; The Fringes of Lovely Letters, a hilarious delineation of the lower and outer reaches of the literary world; Comstockery, a devastating account of the anti-obscenity crusader Anthony Comstock (A good woman, to him, was simply one who was efficiently policed); and On Living in Baltimore, a celebration of his beloved native city.Mencken was a man of strong enthusiasms and even stronger antipathies, expressed in a prose style that marshaled all the resources of the American language in a rich blend of comic invention and sarcastic fury. To read Prejudices is to embark on an exploration of many curious byways of American culture in a moment of tumultuous and often combative transition. Mencken never shied from combat, and the courage with which he confronted the entrenched truisms and hypocrisies of his time made him a uniquely liberating force in American letter.LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an independent nonprofit cultural organization founded in 1979 to preserve our nations literary heritage by publishing, and keeping permanently in print, Americas best and most significant writing. The Library of America series includes more than 300 volumes to date, authoritative editions that average 1,000 pages in length, feature cloth covers, sewn bindings, and ribbon markers, and are printed on premium acid-free paper that will last for centuries.

Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 206 pp. First published in 1926; Annotations, pp. 159-204; Afterword, pp. 205-206. Glossy white wraps with large black dollar sign on full front cover, with a virtual thousand thin black rays emanating from the center of the dollar sign and extending to all edges of the cover, with 'H.L. Mencken' superimposed in white across that middle of the dollar sign and front cover; title letters in small white letters over black across upper middle front cover; other credits in small black lettering at lower left and lower right front cover. A superficial 5" soft crease on the slant on front cover [from 1 1/2" to left of right cover edge to 3/4" to left of right cover edge] NOT extending to either front cover top or bottom edge: describes much worse than it is: you could find the book in this condition on the New shelf of your favorite Indie bookstore. Essentially flawless copoy.
