New York, N.Y. William Morrow and Company, Inc., 1999. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Hardcover. ix, [1], 326 pages. DJ has slight wear. Inscribed by the author on the title page. Inscription reads: For David Gilbert, a fellow writer, one who is fortunate enough to know my splendid editor, Meaghan. May nothing in this book disappoint you! Ann Darby 14 August 1999. Includes Acknowledgments, as well as chapters on Slow Burn, Silk Knots, Christmas, Kisses, Cannonball, the News World, and The Art Room. This book tells the story of a young woman's passage from the troubled family she's longing to escape to the "family" she struggles to create when she is forced into an early adulthood. As the war in Vietnam escalates and as brush fires blacken the California foothills, the Harris family shatters and its members are driven to find new ways to live with one another. With an intimacy immediate and true, The Orphan Game portrays the powerful love that not only binds a family but can also break it apart. Set in a quiet Southern Californian town in 1965, a town where the rules of the fifties haven't quite departed and the new mores of the sixties are fast encroaching, this rueful tale is told in the intertwined voices of three women: Maggie, the young woman struggling to define herself; Marian, the mother who must relinquish her; and Mrs. Rumsen, the childless great-aunt who cares for Maggie when her mother can't.

Baldwin; Notes; Selected Bibliography; and Index. DJ has some scratches. The author taught at Minnesota State University--Moorhead for over thirty years. He was also the author of Peacefully Working to Conquer the World. Hanson W. Baldwin, an editor at the New York Times for almost forty years, was one of America's best-known military writers and analysts of World War II and the Vietnam War. Although committed to a strong national defense, Baldwin nevertheless warned against a potentially harmful arms buildup. His news scoops upset many, but were in keeping with his determination to tell his readers what its government was doing. His continuing criticism of Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara's management of the Vietnam War and the Times management's annoyance with his pro-war position contributed to his decision to retire in March 1968. After retirement he continued to write articles on military affairs for the news columns and Op-Ed page of the New York Times. More
