The Great Ukrainian Partisan Movement and Other Tales of the Eisenhower Years
Dublin, N.H. William L. Bauhan, 1983. Presumed First Edition, First printing thus. Trade paperback. [8], 245, [4] pages. Inscribed by the author on the half-title page. Inscription reads To Ruth Nybro from Charles Merrill Boston 2012. Cover has some wear and soiling. Contents include: The Great Ukrainian Partisan Movement; The Pursuit of Happiness; A Simple Soul; A Glass of Mandarin; Freedom; The Garden; O Canada; Return and Time; The Vortex; The Stone Guest; Paris in the Spring; The Prophet; and The Honor of the Home. Charles Merrill's men and women of the post-World War II generation have to improvise rules on the spot for a series of unexpected situations--now touchingly pathetic, now zanily comic. The settings of these offbeat stories of the Eisenhower years range from a midwestern suburb to airports in Morocco and India to a German prison camp, but the theme that links them is the same: the unplanned confrontations Americans had to deal with at home and abroad in the bewildering world of the early Cold War. Condition: Good.
