Hardcover. Condición: Like New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Like New. Mark Moskin Design, NYC (Jacket); The Wetterhorn by Albert Bierstadt (Front Jacket Painting) Ilustrador. 1st Published by Verso: 1998. 84 pp. Clean, fresh, sharp copy and dust jacket with very little shelf wear. Synopsis: Welcome to the annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Five days and six nights of rarefied discussion attended by at least 2,000 gratifyingly important people from 150 countries, with heads of state, finance ministers, policy intellectuals, Nobel Prize-winning physicists, corporate executives as thick upon the ground as pine needles. Among the 1998 notables: Bill Gates, George Soros, Newt Gingrich, and Helmut Kohl (who, in his opening remarks, informs his audience that the euro is coming and they'd better get used to it, citing the leadership example of his mother, a marvelous woman, as wise as she was strong-minded, who taught her children to eat the meals placed in front of them on the kitchen table without sniveling objection). Your guide to this congregation of the international plutocracy is Harper's editor Lewis Lapham, and although he occasionally finds himself at a loss to know which late-afternoon briefings to attend, the one about El Niño or the one about robots, he manages to put the hype surrounding the global economy into a darkly humorous perspective worthy of comparison to Mark Twain's 'The Innocents Abroad.' In addition to his itinerary during the 1998 Davos summit, Lapham also provides an account of a later economic conference held in New York, which also serves as a recap of the extremely volatile year, and a dictionary of received ideas wherein we learn, to pick one example, that bureaucrats are 'Enemies of Free Enterprise'. No bureaucrat knows what it means to meet a payroll or take a risk. Europe has too many of them. Lapham, a writer known for his not always flattering portraits of America's possessing classes, was among the quorum of journalists in attendance for the 27th annual meeting (1998). Attentive to the program of scheduled events, he encountered finance minister and professor of economics gazing into the glass of the future and seeing little except their own reflections. After five days at Davos, he understood that the masters of markets and captains of commercial empire knew as little about the likely movements of the global economy as the waiters plying them with plum brandy and cheese fondue. Read it and weep for the have-nots!

Paperback. Condición: Near Fine. Illustrated by Sarah Chamberlin Scott Ilustrador. B&W Illustrations; 8.80 X 5.70 X 0.50 inches; 147 pages; Soft cover has slight rubbing to covers. Brown spine with black lettering. B/w drawings to illustrate the text. B/w photograph is the frontispiece, showing Terhune [author/owner] working with Wolf. Originally published in 1925. 'He was undersized; though wirily powerful and as lithe as a panther. His coat, which should have been wavily abundant, was as short and as thick as a chow's. It was not unlike a chow's in texture and growth. His bushy tail was three inches too short. His head was broad where it should have been chiseled into classic lines. His muzzle was not long enough for the rest of his head. The stop above it was too prominent. His glowing eyes were round; not almond-shaped or slanted as called for in the Standard of the Breed. In brief, he was not a true type of collie; though of royally pure lineage. He was a throwback; a throwback almost to the ancestral wolves which form the trunk and roots of the collie family-tree. It was this queer outward resemblance to a young timber-wolf which gave him his name'. Yet Wolf was beautiful, in his own odd way; and he was surpassingly strong and swift. That broad brain-space of his was vibrant with incipient wisdom. Another one of the exceptional works by Terhune, about his beloved Sunnybank collies. I grew up reading and rereading, the books. They were so enticing and magical, and sparked a love for dogs, to be surrounded by dogs, that lives on. Read Terhune, become entranced by these dogs and their stories [most of them true].
