DAVENPORT, MARCIA Too strong for fantasy.
New York Charles Scribner's Sons 1967 Hard Cover Very Good in Good dust jacket
498 pages, cloth, dj, very good. A personal record of music; literature; and politics in America and Europe over half a century. From the website of the University of Pennsylvania's Lecture Series by Barry Paris: The daughter of celebrated opera and concert singer Alma Gluck and great-aunt of Stephanie Zimbalist, Davenport lived in Pittsburgh for two years in the 1930s and wrote a number of acclaimed books during her long career, including biographies of Mozart and Garibaldi, the 1936 novel "Of Lena Geyer," and the 1947 novel "East Side, West Side"; she appointed Paris her personal biographer. Davenport's best-selling 1942 novel "The Valley of Decision"-which was made into a 1945 feature film starring Greer Garson and Gregory Peck-tells the story of East European immigrants working in the steel mills of western Pennsylvania during the early 1900s; and her 1960s book "Too Strong for Fantasy" gives a personal account of her friendship with Jan Masaryk, foreign minister of the Czech government in exile during World War II and of postwar Czechoslovakia. Davenport lived in Prague from 1945 until the Communist coup d'etat and Masaryk's untimely and mysterious death there, in 1948.
