New York: Henry Holt, (2005) dj. Hardcover first edition - The second memoir by this award-winning author, focused on the very beginning of her career - "In 1946, Paula Fox walked up the gangplank of a partly reconverted Liberty with the classic American hope of finding experience in Europe. She was twenty-two years old, and would spend the next year moving among the ruins of London, Warsaw, Paris, Prague, Madrid, and other cities as a stringer for a small British news service - including a stint in bombed-out Warsaw in the midst of the Communist election takeovers, and nights spent in apartments here and there with distant relatives, friends of friends, and in shabby pensions with little heat." Illustrated with photographs. 133 pp. ISBN: 0-805078061.

Condition: Fine in fine dust jacket.
