Boston and New York: Houghton Mifflin, 1922. 8vo, blue pictorial cloth. Signed on the f.f.e.p. by the author. According to Raymond Moley in William H. Hays affirmed his position as the first president of the Motion Picture Producers and Distibutors of America after his son, Bill, put on a cowboy costume at Christmas and said "I'm going to be Bill Hart." Moley states: "Suddenly he realized that Bill Hart was real and close and important to his son and his nephews, that the movies were important to millions of children and grownups. It wasn't just a job that had been offered to him. It was a challenge, a duty." (Moley, 35) Fading to cloth; fraying to spine ends; otherwise fine.
