by John Gunther · Harper

John Gunther's 'Inside' series were among the most popular books of reportage in the 1930s and 1940s. For 'Inside U.S.A., ' Gunther set out from California and traveled the entire country. His frank, lucid observations along the way -- on race relations, labor, the Tennessee Valley Authority, farm life, the politics of the big cities, and much else -- yield fascinating insight into life many years ago. Now on the brink of the millennium, this fiftieth anniversary edition of 'Inside U.S.A.' provides an invaluable picture of America as it was then, both for those old enough to remember it and for young people who may be astonished to see the ways the country has changed.

by John Steinbeck and Robert Capa · Viking Press

Steinbeck's autograph manuscript daybook recording his 1947 journey through Russia, Ukraine and Georgia with Robert Capa, this is a complete record of the trip that would become A Russian Journal. It includes 3 pages at the beginning of the volume recording a synopsis and beginning of an unpublished work, "The Popular Candidate," 1 page at the end dated "Jan 13, 1948," discussing working on "Cannery Row," and a large work called "Monterey Co," written Paris, Stockholm, and various Russian locales. The "Russian Journal" portion covers the time period of July 26, 1947, to approximately September 20, 1947. The bulk of the manuscript is in Steinbeck's close hand, with later notes and additions to page versos and margins as he shaped the manuscript for the book. [Adapted from dealer description]
