The Lonely Crowd
New Haven: Yale University Press, 1950.
First edition. xvii, 386 pp. Original dark green cloth, title blocked in crimson, lettered in gilt. Fine in an About Very Good example of the uncommon dust jacket, unclipped, chipped and well-worn along edges, small mend to verso.
A classic study of the American character circa the mid-20th century. In a 2001 review for The National Post Robert Fulford called this book, "A literate and daringly speculative book, altogether different from the narrow and nervously guarded assemblies of statistical data that often make sociology a synonym for dreariness."
