Description:
Claremont: Blumenfeld and Associates, 1991. First Edition. Soft cover. Fine. Complete series of printed and stapled newsletters, bi-monthly beginning in 1991 and ending abruptly in 1998 (47 issues). Each newsletter is up to 20pp long and nicely printed on quality paper. Blumenfeld was, as I remember, and avid collector of the best books in several Western Americana fields, exploration, cattle trade, outlaws, fur trade, etc., and wrote with knowledge, if not academic authority. In these newsletters he expounds on hundreds of Western books and cites them bibliographically, noting the several great bibliographies for each subject. I (your bookseller) subscribed to this newsletter from the beginning and kept it up to end. Blumenfeld noted that he was going to go out with a bang, but after the fifth newsletter of 1998 he "disappeared." Laid in to the first set is one sheet typed and reproduced by Blumenfeld introducing his new newsletter. Also laid in is a small ruled yellow sheet, handwritten, welcoming…

Durham: Privately published, 1944. First Edition. Hardcover. Collectible Very Good. UNPUBLISHED MANUSCRIPT. "A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Duke University 1944." Quarto clothbound carbon copy with gilt title. 143pp. In this thesis, the author explains that the role of the female black domestic servant in the South is under attack and explains why. Because of the war, black men who did not go into the military were finding betting paying jobs at home and their wives did not need their domestic jobs. Among the other reasons was the purported, but false and widely circulating rumor of "Eleanor Clubs, named after Eleanor Roosevelt. The assertion was that Mrs. Roosevelt was encouraging black domestics to demand higher wages or quit their jobs, and the supposed motto was "a white woman in every kitchen by Christmas." Howard Odum's, Race and Rumors of Race: The American South in the Early…

Near the conclusion of the Preface they say, Mankind lives not by politics alone nor by bread alone but also by things of the spirit which form ideals, inspire love of beauty, and…
