About This Item
Houghton Mifflin, 1957. Hardcover_boards. Used - VeryGood/Good. BCE 5.86"x8.5"x.86". 312 pages. Gray boards. Taupe spine w/red letters. Top edge painted red. Deckled edge. Jacket by William Barrs. Small tears along edges of dust jacket repaired with archival tape. Circle stain on front of dust jacket. Edge wear to dust jacket. Two generations of well-to-do suburbanites. Here the leaders of business and finance have built their spacious homes, only a spoon shot away from the Valley Hunt and Field Club where the ever-young matrons gather during the week for tennis and cocktails and their commuting husbands descend in foursomes on the weekend. And here, amid the glittering prosperity of country-club living, rising young men wage their fierce but careful campaigns for promotion to positions of power.
