If he had to attend another luncheon and eat sweet-breads and peach melba and listen to some orator pronounce a speech he, Hecht, had written, and hear some Magnate outline a campaign which he, Hecht, had invented and that wasn't all, either. Gentlemen, he just couldn't stand it. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
