Sobre este item
New York, NY: McGraw-Hill, 1963. First Edition, First Thus . Hardcover. Collectible - Very Good/Very Good. Susan Perl (Illustrator). Text/Tiny soil spots to pgs 20-25, else NEW & Bright. Illustrated bi-color boards/Fine. DJ/VG; Strong & sound with edge rubs, closed tears & small losses to lower corner tips & edges. A treatise on teenage behavior by poet & writer Richard Willard Armour (1906 - 1989). With wit & humour, Armour makes the case that "Adolescence is a disease" --- no vaccine yet available but mercifully not contagious. Symptoms of Teenese include ranting & raving episodes timed when all windows are open, driving distraught neighbours to escape by walking their dogs at all hours. Richard Armour, professor of Chaucer & the Romantic Poets, is self-described as "a docile husband & soft-hearted parent"; though not a ciminologist, dermatologist, man of cloth, or rock star, he was however once a teenager himself & has seen two inflicted teens to adulthood --- worthy credentials indeed! 180 pgs, line drawings, in 12 chapters. Excellent reading with equally excellent illustrations.
