Latzko, Andreas. LAFAYETTE: A LIFE. Translated From The German By E.W. Dickes. New York: The Literary Guild, 1936
Very light chipping and a few short closed tears to edges of dust jacket, else Very Good copy, sound and tight, in Very Good, attractive dust jacket. "Among men who have played important roles in the shaping of the destinies of nations, no man has a greater claim to be worthily remembered on both sides of the Atlantic than the Marquis de Lafayette, the French liberal whose story - and that of America - are so inextricably intertwined. That Andreas Latzko's brilliant biography contains much newly discovered material dealing with Lafayette's career both in France and the American Colonies is perhaps less important than that its interpretation of new and existing facts is based on a scholarship so broad and vital that it illumines the whole epic of his life with a fresh light. Others will be tempted to write of Lafayette; the glamor attached to his name will prove an irrestible lure for generations to come, but Andreas Latzko, greatest of Austrian men of letters, author of such modern classics as MEN IN WAR and SEVEN DAYS, has here written A LIFE worthy of the man who lived it, than which no greater tribute can be paid. The translation has been made by E.W. Dickes of the Manchester Guardian and captures the translucent and picturesque style of the original.". Book club edition. Tall 8vo (6 1/2" x 9 1/4"). xii, 402 pages. Purple cloth, gilt-stamped spine (hardcover binding). Index.
