[good solid copy, minimal shelfwear, tiny white stain at bottom edge of front cover, tiny stain and one-time owner's signature on ffep; jacket a bit edgeworn, one-inch closed tear at bottom of front panel, a few other little edge-nicks, still bright and attractive]. (frontispiece and center-spread) "A Novel of the Southwest," set primarly on the eponymous New Mexico ranch, owned by an ex-aviator who falls in love with Gail Ormsby, owner of a neighboring ranch. Unfortunately, the manager of Gail's ranch is "a deep-dyed villain [they're the worst kind] who furnishes Gail with unpleasant facts" about the aviator's life, and even plots to have the guy killed. Thank goodness there's a dog involved -- "a loyal collie who speeds the villain's day of reckoning." The San Francisco-born author (1880-1957) was one of those amazingly prolific novelists and short-story writers, who wrote often about such he-man types as ranchers, loggers, and seamen; many of his books were adapted for the movies (sometimes without credit or payment), including this one. (The film version, directed by Irvin Willat, starred Jack Holt and Florence Vidor, and was released by Paramount in January 1926.).

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 508 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm ; LOC NO PS3507.O7573 1942 OCLC 2109625 ; The Robe is a 1942 historical novel about the Crucifixion of Jesus written by Lloyd C. Douglas. The book was one of the best-selling titles of the 1940s. It entered the New York Times Best Seller list in October 1942, and four weeks later rose to No. 1. It held the position for nearly a year. The Robe remained on the list for another two years, returning several other times over the next several years including when the movie version was released in 1953.The book explores the aftermath of the crucifixion of Jesus through the experiences of the Roman tribune Marcellus Gallio and his Greek slave Demetrius. Prince Gaius, in an effort to rid Rome of Marcellus, banishes Marcellus to the command of the Roman garrison at Minoa, a port city in southern Palestine. In Jerusalem during Passover, Marcellus ends up carrying out the crucifixion of Jesus, but is troubled since he believes Jesus to be innocent of any crime. When he wears Jesus' robe reluctantly on request, Marcellus suffers a nervous breakdown and returns to Rome. After again touches the robe, his mind is restored and Marcellus, who now believes that the robe has some power, returns to Judea and follows the path Jesus after Demetrius. Later, Marcellus frees Demetrius who escapes, but both Marcellus and his new wife Diana are executed by the new emperor, Caligula. Marcellus arranges that the robe be given to "The Big Fisherman."Though more than two million copies of the book were sold in its first edition, The Robe is more familiar today as a 1953 Biblical epic film that tells the story of a Roman tribune named Marcellus Gallio (Richard Burton) who commands the unit that crucifies Jesus Christ. There was a sequel known as Demetrius and the Gladiators starring Victor Mature as the title character who fights in the Roman arena.Cassel Douglas (Doya C. Douglas), was born in Columbia City, Indiana on August 27, 1877. He spent part of his boyhood in Monroeville, Indiana, Wilmot, Indiana and Florence, Kentucky, where his father, Alexander Jackson Douglas, was pastor of the Hopeful Lutheran Church. He was married to Bessie I. Porch and had two children: Bessie J. Douglas (1906), and Virginia V Douglas (1908). After receiving the A.M. degree from Wittenberg College, Springfield, Ohio, in 1903, Douglas was ordained in the Lutheran ministry. He served in pastorates in North Manchester, Indiana, Lancaster, Ohio, and Washington, D.C. He was director of religious work at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign from 1911 to 1915, and minister of The First Congregational Church in Ann Arbor, Michigan, from there moving to Akron, Ohio. He served as the Sr. Minister of the First Congregational Church of Akron from 1920-26 and then to Los Angeles, California and finally to the St. James United Church at Montreal, Quebec. Douglas was one of the most popular American authors of his time. His written works were of a moral, didactic, and distinctly religious tone. His first novel, Magnificent Obsession, published in 1929, was an immediate and sensational success.His last book, Time To Remember, was autobiographical, with description of his childhood and education for the ministry. He died in Los Angeles, California on February 13, 1951, before he was able to write the second volume which was completed in The Shape of Sunday by his daughters, Virginia Douglas Dawson and Betty Douglas Wilson. Douglas is buried in Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California. ; fantastic color illustrations by Dean Cornwell ; tiny dig to corner of dustjacket bottom spine, else FINE/NEAR FINE.
