Twice during the last decade of his life, in 1934 and 1936, F.
Scott Fitzgerald proposed a collection of his personal essays to
Maxwell Perkins, his editor at Charles Scribner's Sons. Perkins was
unenthusiastic on both occasions, and Fitzgerald died in 1940
without having put his best essays between hard covers. Fortunately
Fitzgerald left behind a table of contents, and with this list as a
guide it has been possible to publish here the collection that he
envisioned, under the title My Lost City. This volume also includes
several of Fitzgerald's autobiographical writings. My Lost City,
like the other volumes in the Cambridge Edition, provides accurate
texts based on Fitzgerald's surviving manuscripts and typescripts.
Words and passages cut by magazine editors have been restored to
several of the essays. A textual apparatus has been included, along
with full explanatory notes identifying people, places, books,
historical events, and other details.
