The Diamond as Big as the Ritz, Hardcover/F. Scott Fitzgerald

In a 1922 edition of a literary magazine edited by H. L. Mencken ("The Smart Set") is this mountain-sized 'gem' of a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Preceding Fitzgerald's most famous work by three years, The Great Gatsby , in The Diamond as Big As The Ritz we see many of the same themes: the arrogance of extreme greed, gawdy exhibitions of wealth, and the murderous tactics that some will go to to protect their power and prestige. In this painstakingly-recreated edition of Fitzgerald's 1922 novella, we get a glimpse into the themes that Fitzgerald himself was pondering before he made it truly 'big.' This 'riches to even more riches to rags' tale is a highly entertaining and fast read for those looking to get a good taste of 1920's booming America.
