Description: IN 1934, a poor but reasonably honest boy from Newton Centre, Mass., came to the big city to seek his fortune. Today that lad is Russell Maloney, humorist, bon vivant, and trilogist-to-be. Eleven or twelve years have elapsed since Maloney first saw Grant's Tomb. In that time, he remarks with justified chagrin, "writers have entered the world of letters, left it, got into fights with Ernest Hemingway, spoken at Book and Author Lunches, written trilogies, lectured at Bread Loaf, gone to Hollywood, taken a drink, joined Alcoholics Anonymous, or otherwise improved themselves. As far as I can tell, I have managed to stand completely still." Even granting Maloney's main premise, a magnanimous critic can point out that—even on a treadmill—his footwork is a thing of beauty. One does not have to be a magnanimous reader to agree with the critics and disagree with Maloney. This special edition of IT'S STILL MALONEY by Russell Maloney has been made available to the Armed Forces of the United States through an arrangement with the original publisher, The Dial Press, Inc., New York. Editions for the Armed Services, Inc., a non-profit organization established by the Council on Books in Wartime
