A very fine crisp un-read copy in a very fine and tight dustjacket still in shrink wrap. 2nd edition. This study examines the making of the best selling novels Main Street, Babbitt, Arrowsmith, and Elmer Gantry-their sources, composition, publication, and subsequent critical reception. The author shows how Lewis selected usable materials and shaped them, through his unique vision, into novels that reached and remained part of the American literary imagination.
