Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. Good dj. First Edition. [a good sound copy with modest shelfwear, very slight bumping to lower extremities; the jacket is heavily edgeworn, with a number of small tears and nicks, and small bits of paper loss at most corners].

Colleen Moore (to whom the book is dedicated) played the girl, and the handsomest of the sky fighters was portrayed by Gary Cooper, at the time just on the cusp of becoming a major star. The picture was originally released with a Vitaphone score and music effects, but no dialogue, so for all intents and purposes it was a silent film. The number and placement of the stills illustrating the text (in three groups of four, printed on both sides of the plates) is somewhat unusual for a G&D Photoplay Edition of the era. The original stage production had a 176-performance run on Broadway in 1917, and was written by Jane Cowl (who also starred in the play) and Jane Murfin.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Lilac Time' is a poignant historical romance set against the turbulent backdrop of World War I. The story follows the emotional and harrowing experiences of Jeannine, a young French woman living near a British aviation camp, and her blossoming love for Philip Blythe, an idealistic British pilot. As the Great War rages in the skies over France, the narrative explores the intense pressures of military life, the courage of the aviators, and the resilience of the human heart in the face of constant danger.Through its evocative depiction of wartime France, the work captures both the charm of rural life and the stark realities of the conflict. This evocative tale of devotion and sacrifice highlights the fleeting nature of peace and the enduring power of love amidst the uncertainty of the front lines. A classic example of early 20th-century romantic fiction, 'Lilac Time' remains a moving tribute to the generation that lived and loved during the Great War.
