Title: The American Review of Reviews: October 1931
Description: New York, The Review of Reviews Corporation, 1931. Paperback. (Vol. LXXXIV, No. 4). Small 4to. Stiff blue wrappers. 102pp. 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 Franklin D. Roosevelt's "Back to the Land," Lawrence Richey's "Airplanes and Sailfish," Richard T. Ely's "Government in Business and the General Welfare," Eliot Wadsworth's "Life Under Bolshevism," Frank H. Simonds' "The British Capture London" and Howard McLellan's "Tammany Fights a Triple Menace." 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. .
