Title: The American Review of Reviews: July 1929
Description: New York, The Review of Reviews Corporation, 1929. Paperback. (Vol. LXXX, No. 1). Small 4to. Stiff tan pictorial wrappers. 146pp. Numerous illustrations and advertisements, including the usual delightful rear cover color ad for "Lucky Strike" cigarettes. Very good. Minor shelfwear and soiling -- overall tight and attractive. Contents include P.W. Wilson's "Ramsay MacDonald," Frank H. Simonds' "The British Revolution -- Second Phase," Henry Dwight Chapin's "Homes or Institutions?," Barbara Sheffield's "The Airplane and the Average Man" and Sir Esme Howard's "The New British Empire." Discrete ex-library, the only markings being a couple of slight inkstampings. Editor-journalist-historian Shaw (born 1857) founded this long-running monthly in 1891, and it pursued a broad agenda covering U.S. and world political, economic and social issues for decades. .
