Men of Good Hope: A Story of American Progressives.

New York: Oxford University Press, 1951. Hardcover. 8vo. Green cloth. xiv, 329pp. Very good. Tight, handsome first edition, nicely inscribed by Aaron on the front flyleaf: "To M.E.C. with / admiration and affection / Dan." Could be an intriguing association copy -- if you can figure out who "M.E.C." is! Presumably it is this same M.E.C. who has lightly pencilled in several margin comments in the opening pages only. Among the progressives profiled in this volume are Henry George, Edward Bellamy, Henry Demarest Lloyd, William Dean Howells, and Thorstein Veblen. Item #7248
