H. M. Pulham, Esquire, by John P. Marquand, First Edition, Hardcover Book, 1941

H. M. Pulham, Esquire is John P. Marquand's 1941 novel examining American ambition and conformity through the life of a Boston banker reflecting on his past. This first edition hardcover, published by Little, Brown and Company after the initial 950 presentation copies, remains in very good condition and carries the gentle marks of its previous readers—a book club stamp and owner's inscription that speak to its modest place in someone else's literary journey.
