Item description from seller

THAT IMPERILED FREEDOM, Lorin L. Baker, hardcover, probable first edition, 1932. BOOK CONDITION: good. The text block is in near fine condition, with no tears, dog ears, or marks. The pages are age-toned and there is the beginning of a split between pages 352 and 353, but with no separation from binding. No bookplate nor signature of a prior owner. The brown boards are in fairly good condition (bumped corners and spine, shelf wear). Included is a 12-page pamphlet promoting the book. 9 ¼ x 6 ¼, 448 pages, 32 ounces XX [From the author’s prelude] This is the story of California's first striking entrance into the political conflict of America, and certainly and definitely places the wrecking of the Julian Petroleum Corporation into this conflict. Like a travesty of freedom and a grail of injustice, this debacle and the system that made it possible, very easily becomes one of America's greatest tragedies. XX The author adds: Without fear or favor I have written this history of a tragedy that, in its entirety, for many reasons, circumvents one of the greatest catastrophes that could ever be invoked to fall upon the heads of a hapless Nation; made so by its political Machiavellians and by the devious paths that men, bereft of honor, must take when they would become the instruments of gag rule and corrupted political favor. No more pointed synthesis has ever been addressed to the citizenry of a great Nation, at a time when, humbled to the earth, they would seek as by a candle's flame, to find a blind man’s path to Peace, some ray of Hope to stir into flame the dying embers of Love, Liberty and Devotion to Country’s Beloved Shrine. No reader of this book is to presume that I have been inspired by partisan animus. Neither have I been influenced nor rewarded by any man, group of men or political power, to use any part or single word of this book.
