Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fair dj. Illustrated by (dj painting) Edward Laning (illustrator). First Edition. [shopworn copy, binding solid but with slight fraying to cloth along bottom edge and at top of spine, some discoloration to endpapers; jacket is well-worn, small tears and minor paper loss at several corners, faded at spine, old external tape reinforcements across both ends of spine extending into front and rear panels]. Historical novel, set from 1853 through 1901, centering around a Massachusetts minister and his young lawyer son who catch California fever, "the pull of the pioneering spirit," and set off for the West. "In a sweeping, panoramic novel of the turbulent years of growth of a great state, [the author] tells the story of their trek across the continent, their settlement in the fabulous town of San Francisco, and their participation in the stirring events of the next half-century." (The father is described as a "friend of Emerson, Thoreau and Bronson Alcott," and transforms himself from a man of the cloth into a teacher, while the son goes into politics; after the Civil War he leads "a spirited but futile resistance against the domination of California by the Big Four." (This reference is to the guys who built the Central Pacific Railroad: Leland Stanford, Collis Potter Huntington, Mark Hopkins, and Charles Crocker.).

Original watercolor study, possibly for a potential mural, from noted social realist, WPA painter, and muralist Edward Laning (1906-1981). The painting features a Goodwin's Department Store display being arranged by a window dresser, with hurried interracial city crowds passing in the foreground. The smiling mannequins in the window are contrasted with seriousness of the window dresser and the everday worry of the passersby - the promise of commerce vs. the reality of life for the working class. Goodwin's was an infamous anti-union establishment and was also hostile to the poor and working class, notoriously eschewing both layaway and credit programs - a natural subject for Laning who was occupied with such themes for the entirety of his career. Laning's work is at the Whitney, Smithsonian, Met, and perhaps most famously at the NYPL, where his large mural in the McGraw Rotunda remains one of his masterpieces. Original watercolor on paper, 15" x 20" approx. Executed in a brown and grey palette with pencil. Old matting tape to verso. Penciled framer's notations to bottom edge. Else clean and sound. Very good or better. Signed "Laning" to lower right corner.
