Publisher's Note
In honor of the centennial of the author's birth, a new collector's edition features the three novels from his classic Studs Lonigan trilogy--Young Lonigan, The Young Manhood of Studs Lonigan, and Judgment Day--a trio of novels that chronicles the life and times of would-be tough guy Studs Lonigan during the turbulent era of World War I, the Roaring Twenties, and the Great Depression.

Industry Reviews
"I have great admiration for Studs Lonigan. It is a splended piece of work."
Eugene O'Neill

"I think Studs Lonigan is one of the most honest and important works of our time."
Alfred Kazin

"James T. Farrell's place in American letters is characterized, above all, by his rigorous loyalty to his vision of the truth--the truth about people, the truth about writing, the truth about America."
Arthur M. Schlesinger
