Sobre este artículo
Macmillan, New York: 1932., 1932 pp. (20). 272. 8vo. Original full cloth binding. "A copy of OUR WONDERLAND OF BUREAUCRACY should be placed in the hands of every taxpayer in the United States. However, this is a task beyond the capacity of my organization and beyond the capacity of my purse, but I would suggest and even urge that business houses follow my example and make a distribution of their own. The books have been supplied to the following list: Members of the Republican and Democratic Committees; President of the United States; Members of the President's Cabinet; Governors of the United States; Editors of most of the large newspapers; United States Senators and Representatives, Presidents of Railroads, Public Utilities, etc.; Presidents of corporations and business men in general. The publishers will make you a special price, dependent on the size of your order, and will attend to the mailing if you supply them with a list" - A note in later editions from the publisher, Eldridge R. Johnson. Beck was a former U.S. Solicitor General. The true First Edition, and a very nice copy of a book that is still worthwhile reading today. . W146 0.0. F.. Hardcover.
