He also produced stage productions for a few years and gave college lectures." After his death in 1957, two New York newspapers published his last message to his friends: "Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day, something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to continually be part of unanimity." 1200 pages of Christopher Morley's most delectable works, two of his most famous novels, (#5 below and #17), also poems, tales, essays, plays, and one which has never before appeared in book form (#1 below.)
