(Bradford, Gamaliel). Brooks, Van Wyck, ed.
The Journal of Gamaliel Bradford. 1883-1932.
Publisher: Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1933.. Frontis, xiii, 560 pp. Sm. 4to. Cloth (hardback). First edition. Poet, biographer, dramatist, and long time resident of Wellesley, Mass., Bradford kept a journal that ran about 1,400,000 words of which this selection represents about one seventh. Perhaps most famous for his "pyschographs," or character sketches, of which those in Damaged Souls (1924) were his most popular. Very good with light rubbing to boards, otherwise crisp and clean.
