1919 · New York
by Fosdick, Harry Emerson
New York: Association Press, 1919. 41p., small upright booklet, 5.5 x 3 inch staplebound wraps, with a nice sketch in blue-grey on a dovegrey field and an emphatic little YMCA logo in red. Faint signs of handling, age. Copyright page shows that the copyright was held, at least since 1908, by The International Committee of Young Men's Christian Associations. Cover here bears the YMCA logo in red and grey. The wide circulation (405,000 cc) has probably much to do with problems of post WWI uplift and social control, brought on by a huge influx of the demobilized. (Inventory #: 98382)
