First trade edition. The author's first book, winner of the Atlantic Non-Fiction $5,000 Prize for 1935 (although the judges had rejected it two years previously). It was also selected by the Book of the Month Club and these events launched the author on a distinguished literary career as historian, teacher, biographer and novelist. Her eminently readable writings include a biography of the Oglala Sioux chief Crazy Horse, Cheyenne Autumn and some novels which reflect her concerns for social justice and the relationship of people to the land. About this book Mari Sandoz related: ÒOld Jules is the biography of my father, Jules Arni Sandoz; I have also tried in a larger sense to make it the biography of a community, the upper Niobrara country in western NebraskaÓ. From this overview, the dust jacket blurb details ÒOld Jules had four wives: one was a slattern; the next was driven insane; the third ran off with an accordion player; the fourth bore him his six children, of whom Mari, the author of this unique contribution to American biography and history, was the secondÓ. Although Sandoz spent much of her later years living in New York's Greenwich Village, according to her wishes she was buried in the sandhills of Nebraska. [DAB. NAWM]. $100.00. #22948
