H.L. Mencken's Smart Set Criticism - Softcover

"One finds in Mr. Nolte's selection the original reviews, then so unconventional, of Conrad, Huneker, and Dreiser...I am glad to find old pieces I remember and that Mencken never collected - especially the summaries of periods in his life...And it is therefore very much worth while to have Mr. Nolte's collection of Mencken's earlier, more spontaneous work." -Edmund Wilson, The New Yorker
