Hardcover. NY, Alfred A. Knopf, 2nd pr., 1942, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Hardcover, orange cloth, stamped in gray and black, 208 pages. In his two earlier novels, "The Sea of Grass" and "The Trees," Conrad Richter has made a solid contribution to the long shelf of Americana; in "Tacey Cromwell" he goes back into the Arizona Territory a half century ago, to find a protagonist in the hennaed sporting-house madam who gives the book its name. Like others of this celebrated sisterhood, Tacey yearns for a husband and social esteem. Clean copy.
