Hardback. Demonstrates how adolescence supplied the inspiration, and at times the formal principles, on which many twentieth-century poets founded their works. This book recasts the history of how English-speaking cultures began to view this phase of life as a valuable state of consciousness, if not the very essence of a Western identity. Num Pages: 280 pages. BIC Classification: 2AB; DC; DSBH; DSC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 229 x 152 x 23. Weight in Grams: 590.

Hardcover. 8vo. Good clean copy in slipcase. Case is bumped at the edges. An imprint of George Macy Companies, Ltd., Heritage Press was founded in 1935. The Press printed more affordable classic volumes that were previously published by Macy’s Limited Editions Club and covered a broad range of topics primarily within the Western canon. In addition to Macy, directors of the Heritage Press included Cedric Crowell, General Manager of the Doubleday Bookshops; Frank L. Magel, head of Putnam Bookstores in New York; and A. Koch, head of Brentano Stores in New York. Though many of Macy’s other imprints, including The Heritage Club, The Heritage Illustrated Bookshelf, and The Junior Heritage Club, were sold by subscription only, Heritage Press editions were sold through bookstores. Macy combined his publishing enterprises in 1944, though each imprint maintained its specific target audience. The archives of the George Macy Companies, including both the Limited Editions Club and The Heritage Press, were purchased by the Ransom Center in 1970.
