Tales of Scott and Zelda roadtripping, finally back in print In an early series of journalistic pieces for Motor magazine, F. Scott Fitzgerald described a journey he took with his wife Zelda from Connecticut to Alabama in a clapped out automobile which he called the "Rolling Junk." It is a piece of writing whose style, in free-ranging alternation of fact and fiction, has been compared to Jerome K. Jerome's Three Men in a Boat. This book collects together the articles as one text, illustrated with the original illustrations of Fitzgerald, Zelda, and the "Junk."

Though Coover's message is bleak, his delivery is wonderfully comic (Bharati Mukherjee, The Globe & Mail (Toronto)) in this spare, tantalizing, and perfect book, named by Daphne Merkin in The New Yorker as one of her favorite S/M books.

<p>Poems: 1911-1940 collects 149 of F. Scott Fitzgerald's verses (poems, jingles, doggerel) written over the entire span of his career, plus the fifty-five lyrics he wrote for three Triangle Club musicals as a Princeton undergraduate. These are not great poems; but they are poems by a great writer. Fitzgerald was a failed poet. Before he wrote his first novel he had hoped to publish a book of poems and may even have considered writing a novel in verse. For the rest of his life Fitzgerald wrote poetry, much of it humorous occasional verse which permitted him to indulge his love of rhyme. He believed that the best thing he got from his years at Princeton was his self-tutelage in poetry. The rhythms of Swinburne delighted him, but Keats provided his gauge for great poetry. Fitzgerald's response to Keats convinced him that he could never become a great poet. But the lessons of poetry were not wasted: he tried to become a prose Keats.</p>

Novelist James Gould Cozzens has left a rich record of official documents and memoirs in this work, which originated in his three years of WWII military service as a USAAF officer. He was "there at the making" of several important decisions and policies, including the disposal of unwanted P-39 and P-63 aircraft to the USSR, (and other matters involving that ally, including his tongue in cheek comment in a secret document that the provision of B-29s to the USSR might be inimical to future US national interest...) race relations, problems facing woman service members, discipline, service racketeering, the true story of what went on in Colin Kelly's B-17, and many other bits of then-classified information, provided in the rich and humorous context of a skilled observer's diary. Cozzen's broad knowledge of many professional fields and deep understanding of the motivations and behavior of men and women and the organizations they comprise really fleshes out the record. This is social history examined by one in a macro position; he traveled so broadly to so many troublespots and was so curious as to have compiled a record from the "bottom up" and the "top down" simultaneously. This is a fine book of great use to historians interested in the social and institutional history of the USA at global war, with its all too human everyday problems. Also rich in documentary material (nmostly classified 'secret') about various aircraft and opeerational problems. The B-29, B-32 and early jet programs (P-80) are discussed. The work could benefit from a subject and/or name index.
