The Borzoi 1920 : Being a sort of record of five years' publishing

This volume serves as a lively snapshot of a young publisher’s first half‑decade, assembling the titles, authors, and illustrations that defined its early catalog. In a warm foreword, the founder thanks the writers, booksellers, critics, and readers whose enthusiasm turned a modest venture into a cultural touchstone. The book is organized as a practical reference, offering concise bibliographies, a Who’s Who of contributors, and brief notes intended for librarians and collectors alike.

Readers will find entries from a remarkable roster of early twentieth‑century voices—Willa Cather, H. L. Mencken, Max Beerbohm, and many others—each accompanied by a short excerpt or a charming illustration. The selected passages range from poetic musings to incisive essays, providing a taste of the literary diversity that the press championed. For anyone interested in the emergence of modernist thought and the network of writers who shaped it, this compilation offers an engaging, compact window into a formative moment of American and international letters.
