Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. KENTUCKY AUTHOR JOHN FOX JR. 2 IN ONE KENTUCKIAN & A KNIGHT OF THE CUMBERLAND. Here is a book with two novels by Kentuckian John Fox Jr. who was a war correspondent during the Spanish-American War, and a friend and contemporary of Teddy Roosevelt and some of other adventure prone individuals of the time. He reinvented himself as a raconteur, telling tales of the Kentucky and the land in which he was raised, even accompanying his story telling with backwoods ballads. I am pleased to offer a nice book, published by Scribner s (for whom he worked for a period as a war correspondent before these were published) that includes the two novels: The Kentuckians, and A Knight of the Cumberland. This small hard cover book (5 ¼ x 7 ½ inches, 259 pages total) is bound in khaki green with an embossed gilt flower medallion on the cover and gilt titles on the spine. The books were illustrated by W.T. Smedley and F.C. Yohn and published by Charles Scribner s Sons of New York in 1912. The top edge is gilt and this book belongs on the bookshelf of someone who loves the history and folklore of the great state of Kentucky! Condition: This book is in very good condition and that is one of the reasons which prompted me to offer it, and at a very reasonable price. There is some edge wear to the hard covers, nothing significant. The spine is faded a bit but the titles still clear and attractive. There is an inked former owner s name on the front endpaper but that is the only mark I found in the book. The pages and plates (of which there are 8, including a well-preserved tissue protected frontispiece) are clean and bright throughout. Both hinges are intact although the binding is lightly cracked at the half-title but the binding still seems tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. A.T. QUILLER-COUCH THE ADVENTURES OF HARRY REVEL SCRIBNERS 1903 1ST VG. My collections include many first edition books of fiction, and it is time to move some of them along. For the time being I am going to list these books only if they are in very good condition. I am pleased to offer then: The Adventures of Harry Revel by A.T. Quiller-Couch. As I am not all that familiar with vintage fiction, I found some help at Wikipedia and provide a short excerpt of what I found (with my thanks and occasional contribution): Sir Arthur Thomas Quiller-Couch: (21 November 1863 12 May 1944) was a British writer who published using the pseudonym Q. Although a prolific novelist, he is remembered mainly for the monumental publication The Oxford Book of English Verse 1250-1900 (later extended to 1918) and for his literary criticism. He influenced many who never met him This small hard cover book (5 ½ x 7 ¾ inches 346 pages plus 4 pages of publisher s advents) was published by Charles Scribner s Sons dated 1903 and an apparent First Printing of the First Edition (according to my reading of the copyright page). The book is bound in dark blue (Oxford Blue) with gilt framing and gilt titles on cover and spine and the top edge is gilt too. Condition: This book is in very good condition (which is what as mentioned prompts me to list it). The hard covers are bright and presentable with some minor wear to the gilt framing and a small abrasion hardly noticeable along the bottom edge. The spine is a bit sunned but also still presentable. There has been some very minor bumping to the corners and spine tips and the book is a bit canted to the right. There is a speck or two of foxing on the front endpaper (but not the rear). Inside a former owner has left his penciled name (which can probably be erased if you choose; bless his soul) on the front endpaper. This is the only mark I found in the book which is otherwise bright and clean without toning or foxing. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…

I am pleased to offer a First Edition, First Printing (copyright 1902, published August 1902) copy of: The Fortunes of Oliver Horn, by F. Hopkinson Smith. This volume was illustrated by Walter Appleton Clark and includes a tissue-protected frontispiece and seven (7) other full page, b&w plates. This small hard cover book (5 ¼ x 7 ¾ inches, 552 pages) was published by Charles Scribner s Sons of New York, copyright 1902 and this appears to be the First Printing, published in August 1902. This book is bound in green cloth with white and gilt decorations and titles on cover and spine. Condition: This book is in very good condition and it is precisely this condition which prompts me to offer it after reviewing the copies available online. The hard covers are clean and attractive although there is some wear and loss to the white framing on the right-hand side of the front cover (please see the photos). The hard covers are also slightly bumped at the corners and spine tips and there is a small white blemish on the rear board. Inside, although a former owner has left his penciled name on the front endpaper, it is the remarkably clean and bright pages, without toning or foxing, that make this copy stand out. The page edges are a bit soiled or darkened, particularly the top edge. Both hinges are fully intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. JOHN GALSWORTHY AWAKENING ILLUSTRATIONS BY R.H. SAUTER SCRIBNERS 1920 1ST AMERICAN. I am pleased to offer a copy of the 1st American Edition of a book by the famed British Author John Galsworthy who would go on to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1932. The book is titled: Awakening, and is the story of 8 years old Jon Forsyte (of Galsworthy s Forsyte Saga fame). The book was illustrated by R.H. Sauter and includes a tissue-guarded color frontispiece and b&w drawings, many with striking blue highlights or accents, and charming and artfully decorated endpapers in that same blue. This small hard cover book (7 ½ x 10 ¼ inches, 64 pages) was published by Charles Scribner s Sons of New York, dated 1920 and I believe from what it says on the copyright page that this is the First Printing of the First American Edition. The book is bound in tan boards with gilt titles and Jon s silhouette embossed in a gilt cameo on the cover. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The hard covers, however, are darkened, perhaps age-toned or tobacco-smoke stained (no residual smell) and also show some soiling especially on the rear board. The corners and spine tips are slightly bumped. Fortunately, the interior of the book is much better. There is an inked gift inscription on the front endpaper but that is the only mark I found in the book. The tissue-guard of the frontispiece is creased and shows some light foxing which has also transferred to the adjoining title page (please see the photos). There are a few more pages, particularly at the outset which show some very minor foxing, often just one or two specks of it and which dissipate as one goes into the book. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. COUNTRY WALKS ABOUT FLORENCE BY EDWARD HUTTON 1908 SCRIBNER S 50+ DRAWINGS. Please find a lovely little guidebook for Italy titled: Country Walks About Florence by Edward Hutton. This book was written before it became popular to tour the Tuscan Hills and the many quaint towns thereabouts. If you are considering a trip to Tuscany this book is for you. This small flexible soft cover book (6 ½ x 6 ¾ inches 324 pages) was published by Charles Scribner s Sons dated 1908 with no mention of edition. It is bound in light blue covers with gilt titles on cover and spine. It is very well illustrated with 32 drawings by Adelaide Marchi and twenty other illustrations by various artists. There is a detailed map of the area around Florence on the front endpapers. Condition: This book is in very good condition. There has been some bumping to the hard covers but nothing severe. There is also a small brown spot in the lower right-hand corner of the front cover. Inside the book is unmarked but there is some staining to the endpapers and their maps doubtless from the acids of the binding glues. Otherwise, the pages are clean and bright throughout. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound albeit a bit canted to the right. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…
