Some of Mencken’s most interesting letters were written to George Sterling, a pupil of Ambrose Bierce. The correspondence—which survives nearly intact on both sides—covers a wealth of subjects, including Mencken’s editorship of the
Smart Set
(1914-23) and
American Mercury
(1924-26), mutual colleagues (Bierce, Theodore Dreiser, Jack London, Sinclair Lewis), and most entertainingly, each author’s flagrant flouting of Prohibition as well as Sterling’s carnal adventures with a variety of women in California. These letters shed a vivid light on the literary, political, social, and cultural temper of the Jazz Age.
