Description: Vintage 1947 "The Proper Bostonians" Cleveland Amory HC/DJ TRUE FIRST EDITION. Photos are of actual item for sale. Condition is "Very Good". Dust jacket has a clear vinyl cover and shows some tape repair at spine and bottom rear side (see pics). Some tanning at front and rear endpapers. Reading pages are excellent, clean and unmarked, no rips or tears. Shipped with USPS Media Mail. Amory has provided an insider's look at Boston's '400' and the role they had in shaping the city. It is a review full of humor and wry asides. He may or may not be part of the '400' himself, but he was certainly a close observer. Along with a carefully researched program on the members' origins and the source of their money, the author managed to sneak in the occasional quotation from one of the members that grabs you by the funny bone.
