Description: The Practical Cogitator, or The Thinker's Anthology. Selected and arranged by Charles P. Curtis, Jr. and Ferris Greenslet. Published in 1945 by Houghton Mifflin Co., Boston. First edition. Hardcover, with dust jacket. 577 pages. The editors aspired to make this volume "a sort of cerebral Coast Pilot" to guide thinkers with passages "of the kind that color the thought and shape the lives of men." To read it is a liberal education --at least, according to the dust jacket. The dust jacket has wear and chips around the edges and has been partially mended with tape. The dust jacket has fold marks on the front inner flap. The book itself is in very nice condition. There are no bookplates, ink names, pen/pencil notations, or similar flaws. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Our father was a bibliophile who collected rare books, letters, and ephemera for more than 60 years.
