Ringkasan
Dodo Collections brings you another classic from Irvin S. Cobb, ‘Roughing it De Luxe.’
“Cobb is a marvelous writer. The section about his travels in the Grand Canyon needs to be read by every person who likes both travel and humor, because its hysterically funny. Cobb comes across in some ways like an early Bill Bryson. Highly recommended.”
Avis Black
Cobb joined the staff of the magazine Saturday Evening Post during 1911, and covered the Great War for the magazine. At the same time, he wrote a book about his experiences, published during 1915, titled Paths Of Glory. After a second visit to France to cover the Great War, Cobb publicized the achievements of the unit known as theHarlem Hellfighters, most notably, Croix de Guerre recipients Henry Lincoln Johnson and Needham Roberts. His article Young Black Joe, published on August 24, 1918 in theSaturday Evening Post and later republished in Cobbs book, The Glory of the Coming, highlighted the discipline and courage displayed by black American soldiers fighting in Europe during World War I. The three-page article and half-page photograph reached a national audience of more than two million readers, and was widely reprinted in the black press.
