Stegner, Wallace The Uneasy Chair : A Biography of Bernard De Voto
Garden City, New York, USA Doubleday & Company, Inc. 1974 0-385-07884-6 / 9780385078849 Hard Cover Good Good B/W Photographs
Tan cloth on boards, brown cloth on spine. Volume has some edgewear, remainder spray on bottom page edges. Jacket is worn all edges, chips to the head and heel of the spine. Now in clear cover. Bernard De Voto, essayist, historian, conservationist, and full time iconoclast is paid his due here by Wallace Stegner for a lifetime served as cultural arbitrator to a nation. Aided by personal memories, Stegner breathes a reminiscent vitality into the man who roared out of the West to take his stand as a partisan of common sense and adversary of cant, a friend of the public lands, and enemy of the lukewarm martini, who in the twenty years he occupied 'The Easy Chair' for Harper's Magazine never wrote a dull sentence. Wallace Stegner reveals De Voto as a man of extraordinary courage and will who channeled the destructive tides of his enormous energy into an unceasing defense of the free mind. De Voto was a champion of causes, a snatcher-up of selected gauntlets, a man who sought forums and found them from which he judged and advocated, pointed out and rallied against anything in American life that sparked his interest. And their were few things too small or large, too niggling or powerful for this brilliant watchdog to sink his sharp sturdy teeth into."
