F. Scott Fitzgerald first edition, Tender is the Night, All the Sad Young Men

"... My whole theory of writing I can sum up in one sentence: An author ought to write for the youth of his own generation, the critics of the next, and the schoolmasters of ever afterward ...." from The Author's Apology, THIS SIDE OF PARADISE, 1st edition, 3rd printing, 1920.

ALL THE SAD YOUNG MEN

However, the publisher did not differentiate these printings on the copyright page and there have been no textual variants discovered. There have been several "character-type" batterings noted on various different pages; however, there is no way of discerning which are precedent.

This book was dedicated to Ring and Ellis Lardner. Short stories include: "The Rich Boy," "Winter Dreams," "The Baby Party," "Absolution," "Rags Martin-Jones and the Pr-nce of W-les," "The Adjuster," "Hot and Cold Blood," "'The Sensible Thing'," and "Gretchen's Forty Winks."
