As a student, I bought the recommended text from the University library, but hated it. My GF had used the above during her student years, which was much better. Shame I had to give it back when we went our separate ways really.

I believe his last edition was the 5th in 1968. Unfortunately another author, Dittman was added to the later versions with mixed reviews. I have not read it.
Zemansky, in my opinion was also a great teacher of Thermodynamics which gave me my first taste of this fascinating subject.

You answered the question relating to Thermodynamics.
I believe the authors were at CCNY.
At graduate school (CCNY) we also used Thermodynamics by Keenan.
