Seller's Description:
Good. 0818403527. One of twenty-three books selected for inclusion on the "Forbidden Bookshelf". 968 pages. Footnotes. Index. Black and white photographic plates. "Prentice-Hall drastically slashed its print run and advertising budget, despite the book's having met its advance sales target and won wide acceptance in reviews across the country. The almost immediate (and reportedly unprecedented) cancellation by BOMC (Book of the Month Club) of a book under such circumstances would have a chilling impact on most publishers, and Prentice-Hall was no exception. They allowed the book to go out of stock while demand for it remained high, and ultimately let it go out of print altogether."-Foreword. The above was discovered only after the author took Du Pont and Prentice-Hall to federal court. "I have tried, with admittedly humble resources, to explain what the Du Ponts and their extraordinary history mean for American society, its past and its future."-Foreword. Book clean and unmarked with average wear. Binding intact. Dust jacket not included. A sound copy of this important work.; 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall; Du Pont Dupont Family E.I. Du Pont De Nemours & Company History Chemical Industry United States Social Economic Conditions Nylon CIA Privished Title Forbidden Bookshelf Wilmington Delaware Nuclear Power Fuel Savannah.
