(Wikipedia) This copy has been inscribed in blue ink and presented: "To Pat Outerbridge good man, good friend. Always, John O'Hara 23 October 1958". Joseph W. ('Pat') Outerbridge of Princeton, NJ was a very close friend and drinking companion of O'Hara who gave him many signed copies of his books over the years. The books are from the collection of Pat Outerbridge's surviving son David. Quoting from Pamela Mac Arthur's book "The Genteel John O'Hara" about O'Hara's relationship with Joseph 'Pat' Outerbridge: "O'Hara's companionship with Sister (his sister-in-law Winnie Gardiner who later became his wife) ended his long nights with his best friend, Pat Outerbridge. Those nights began at eleven o'clock in the evening and terminated at three o'clock in the morning. Now, he could resume his late night cycle of writing."
