"Newly annotated by the author. For the 20th edition of this explosive classic Philip Wylie has supplied a thoughtful preface-- and illuminating footnotes reflecting his current thinking on what he calls a survey of moral want, a philosophical discourse suitable only for the strong, a study of American types and archetypes and a signpost on the two thoroughfares of man, the Via Dolorosa and the Descensus Averno, together with sundry preachments, epithets-- moral adventures-- political impertinences-- allegories-- aspirations-- visions and jokes as well as homely hints for the care of the human soul."
