Hutchinson and Main Street by Sinclair Lewis. Mr. Overton bows to the authors and to their publishers and to the American public. He bows to the authors for the quality of their work and to the publishers and the public for their recognition of that quality. These two substantial successes confirmed Overton's belief that the American public relishes good reading.
