Prima edizione Copia autografata
Condizione: Near Fine. First Edition. First edition, first printing. A fantastic association copy signed by Sue Bailey Thurman in the year of publication and warmly inscribed "For Alfred G. Fisk, native son and pioneer, for whom I am indebted for my deep love of California." Alfred G. Fisk was the catalyst for Sue Bailey Thurman's time spent living in California. Fisk, a white philosophy professor at San Francisco City College (now SF State) and a local Presbyterian minister, started to meet with colleagues to discuss how they could best bridge the divide "of understanding among the varied races, cultures, and faiths presented in American society." He envisioned a church where both black and white could pray together seamlessly as equals and reached out to Sue Bailey Thurman's husband Howard, a Black theologian who was the Dean of Chapel at Howard University in Washington, D.C. Fisk asked if Thurman could recommend a student or colleague for a co-pastor role at the church he was envisioning. "We don't want [the church] to be in any sense run by whites 'for' Negroes," Fisk wrote to Howard Thurman on Oct. 15, 1943. "It should be of and by and for both groups. [.] We are committed to a real equality between the races in all aspects of church organization," Fisk continued. "The boards of the church, the choir, the Sunday School and its staff will all be of mixed character. The co-pastors will have absolutely equal status and will alternate Sundays in preaching and in taking other parts of the service." Ultimately, it was Howard himself who filled that role as preacher at what would be called The Church For the Fellowship of All Peoples. And it was with his prominence that the church quickly gained popularity, and even gained members from afar who couldn't attend services, including former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. While in San Francisco, Sue Bailey Thurman led the church's Intercultural Committee and co-led a delegation to one of the earliest UNESCO conferences, convened in Paris in 1949. Publisher's original comb-bound yellow stiff wraps printed in brown. Near Fine with light wear and toning to wraps.

Condizione: Good. First Edition. First edition, first printing. Signed and inscribed by Sue Bailey Thurman and warmly inscribed to a former owner.

One tooth is broken on the comb binding, and the wraps are detached edges at several teeth. Pages toned and with occasional creases. Instead of being arranged by course for the chef, recipes are instead arranged according to the calendar year, linking dishes with famous people and African American traditions, celebrating black culture, and foreshadowing the notion of "black pride" for up-and-coming authors. A project by the National Council of Negro Women whose mission was to "encourage and effect the participation of Negro women in civic, political and economic, and educational activities and institutions." The NCNW compiled the favorite recipes of members from seven regional councils. Signed copies are very scarce.
