Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Arthur Babb (1865-1951) was a farmer, railroad carpenter, building contractor and self-taught bookbinder. Despite a lack of formal education he was also a studious man, a voracious reader and a freethinker.In 1944 and 1945, when he was seventy-nine years of age, Babb wrote two long essays in which he recorded his thoughts and opinions regarding religion. These essays, together with two short pieces composed nearly twenty years earlier and another written in 1946, make up this posthumous work in which the author asks in an occasionally humorous and conversational style of writing some thought-provoking questions that challenge the veracity of one of humankind's oldest and most sacred concepts.

First Edition. Eight original octavo issues, comprising the first two years of publication, bound together in plain cloth with gilt spine title; original card wrappers bound in. Each issue 64pp; illus. A clean, tightly-bound volume, with the individual issues clean and unmarked; about Fine. Well-preserved run of this important West Coast literary journal, which collected the work of many writers on the left at a time when they were under fire from the House Un-American Activities Committee. Of singular importance is the first published appearance, in the Summer, 1953 issue, of Michael Wilson's screenplay for the suppressed classic Salt of the Earth, one of the truly great works in the pantheon of labor filmmaking and one of very few works of the period to portray Mexican-American workers in a positive light. The movie was produced in 1954, directed by Herbert Biberman, but effectively disappeared after all but a dozen theaters nationwide refused to screen it. The screenplay, published here, includes numerous still images from the as-yet unreleased film, with additional brief essays by Biberman, Paul Jarrico (the producer), and Rosaura Revueltas, who starred as "Esperanza." Other contributors to these eight issues include a host of mid-century radical and experimental writers, including Edwin Rolfe, Aimé Césaire, Thomas McGrath, B. Traven, Pablo Neruda, Eve Merriam, John Oliver Killens (a very early appearance, in the Spring 1952 issue), Philip Bonosky, Nelson Algren, and many others. For the first few issues Lawrence Spingarn was listed as Editor in Chief, but by Spring, 1951 Sanora Babb had taken over most editorial duties.
