Garden City: Doubleday, 1951. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. First edition. About fine in very good or better dustwrapper with a small externally repaired tear, another short tear, and slight spine fading. A handsome copy and a good year for short stories with contributions by William Faulkner ("A Name for the City"), Eudora Welty ("The Burning"), Truman Capote ("The House of Flowers"), Carson McCullers, John Cheever, Evan S. Connell, Jr., John Hersey, Arthur Miller, Jean Stafford, and others. Perhaps most notable for containing the first book appearance of the Frank Rooney story, "Cyclists' Raid," which first appeared in *Harpers' Magazine*. Producer Stanley (truncated)
