Hardback. Picture it: You are Paxton Quigley and you are gradually but inexorably being seduced to death. You are the Quig, native of Connecticut and bedrooms, an expert on Kierkegaard and contraception, but you are being cut down in your prime by a trio of vengeful, tireless young women. You are the Pax, known as Williams College's highest scoring stud but, brother, you have just about had the course. All you did was to offer your affectionate services simultaneously to three of Bennington College's loveliest young wenches, without telling each about the others. And who, given the opportunity, wouldn't? Al Loam is anxious—with a capital 'A' for Angst: anxious about his sex life, his family life, his business life, his whole life. He has reached a point of such nearly total frustration that his suppressed desires erupt in a Walter Mitty torrent of erotic day-dreams.Loam, the tragi-comic hero of this novel, is employed by Missionary Mills of New York, in charge of their Krispie Krunchie breakfast cereal account, where his entire day is spent re-arranging the contents of his in and out trays, drinking greasy coffee, eating hugely and secretly, and complaining about the pressures and exigencies of executive life in the Big City. When he returns home at night, full of the important business he has enacted in his fantasies during the day and full of thoughts of the voluptuous secretarial force in the office and of the women he has passed on the street, he has one thing on his mind. His wife has one thing on her mind: to get dinner on the table and the dishes washed. Overwhelmed by frustrated potency, Loam wreaks his revenge by attacking and demolishing the food in front of him, to spend the evening illuminated by the ghostly glow of the television screen, bereft of gastric calm, and threatened but never compromised by the papers in the attache case waiting at his feet like a faithful dog.His sexual fantasies remain purely of his mind until he meets Miss Vivian Biltmore, queen of the blue movies, who in return for a favour from Loam, volunteers one of her own.Al Loam, bored, lonely and misunderstood, his protuberant paunch giving a false impression of success and solidarity, is a sad, lovable, pathetic and intensely comic figure, and A Turn in the Dark Wood is a sexy and painfully funny satire of contemporary American society. Secondhand. Fair condition, spine is starting to split inside front cover and some whitout over what appears to be the name of the orriginal owner in several places.

James Edmond Fechet (1877-1948).The first chief of the Air Corps from 1927 to 1931, Major General Fechet made a lasting mar. Men he worked with both on his staff and in other top Air Corps positions became key leaders of the Air Forces in World War II.Except for 10 months as the commandant of the Advanced Flying School, General Fechet spent the years from 1920 until he retired in December 1931 in the Office of the Chief of the Air Service. He was assistant chief of the Air Service for more than 2 1/2 years before becoming chief.Fechet was among the top of the air arm's leadership for more than a decade. Carl Andrew Spaatz (born Spatz; June 28, 1891 - July 14, 1974), was an American World War II general. As commander of Strategic Air Forces in Europe, he pressed for the bombing of the enemy's oil production facilities as a priority. He became Chief of Staff of the newly formed United States Air Force in 1947. Thomas Edgar Stephens (November 18, 1884 - January 4, 1966) was a Welsh-American artist and portrait painter. Born in Cardiff, Wales in 1886, he studied at the Art School of Cardiff University, then at the Heatherly School in London, and then at the Académie Julian in Paris. One of the first portraits Stephens painted upon his arrival in the United States in 1929 was that of Abraham Lincoln. His portrait of Eisenhower hangs in the Smithsonian Institution's Gallery of Presidents in Washington, D.C. and his portrait of Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower at Gettysburg Battlefield home. His portrait of Eisenhower appeared on the front page of Time on April 4, 1969, the issue that carries Eisenhower's obituary. Stephens also painted portraits of George C. Marshall and Douglas MacArthur and many more of the Army's foremost generals of World War II on commission from the United States Military Academy. That of MacArthur appeared on a Life magazine cover on August 28, 1950. He also painted many judges such as Fred M. Vinson and Charles Davenport Lockwood. He painted Harry Truman and the entire Eisenhower cabinet such as George M. Humphrey, Secretary of the Treasury. He also painted the Duke of Windsor. Winston Churchill allowed him to paint his portrait at Eisenhower's request. Stephens' works can be found, among other places, in the White House, the National Gallery of Art, the U.S. Supreme Court, the Pentagon, Walter Reed Hospital, the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, the U. S. Naval Academy, the Eisenhower Museum in Abilene, Kansas, the Legion of Honor Gallery in Paris; the American Embassy in London, IBM corporate headquarters, Cornell University, Columbia University, Harvard University, the Harry Truman Library and others.
