Sobre este artículo

Boston and New York: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1918. First Trade Edition. Very Good+. First trade edition. (First printing with date 1918 in roman numerals on bottom of title page; most copies online are later printings without that date.) 519, [1] pp. Publisher's blue cloth lettered in gilt, gilt topstain. A Very Good+ copy with bumped corners, small scuff to spine, very slight wave to textblock, a little foxing towards rear. Lacking jacket. A very neat, clean copy of the Pulitzer-winning autobiography, first privately published in a tiny edition, then published posthumously in this first trade edition.

Sinopsis

The Education of Henry Adams is the autobiography of the Bostonian Henry Adams. As he approached his seventieth birthday when "the mind wakes to find itself looking blankly into the void of death," Adams wrote and privately printed 100 copies of his "Education", a reflection on the incredible events of the 19th century. Adams meditates on his sense of disorientation with the scientific and technological expansion over his lifetime. After his death the book was commercially published, going on to become a best-seller and to win the Pulitzer Prize.
