Sobre este artículo
In 1933, the great Irish writer George Bernard Shaw made his one and only visit to the United States, and addressed a gathering of the Academy of Political Science in New York. He made the speech entitled "The Political Madhouse in America and Nearer Home". In it, rather than use flattery to persuade, he used ridicule, shock and irritation to create change. As many in the room were insulted, the speech caused a stir and his publisher immediately printed and marketed the transcript. This is a first edition of that transcript.
It is just 63 pages. Bright blue cover with taped spine (it was published with a taped spine). The name of the artist who designed all of Shaw's books, John Farleigh, is printed on the cover. It's printed on thick, stiff paper.
The spine of the book has been split (see photo). But, aside from that, and a little fading to the right side of the cover, this book is in mint condition.
