Sobre este artículo
1894. HARTE, Bret. The Bell-Ringer of Angels.... With Illustrations by Dudley Hardy, G.D. Armour, A.S. Boyd, Percy Reynolds, etc. Orig. pictorial cloth. London: Chatto & Windus, 1894. First English edition. BAL 7373. Sadleir 1140. "This collection varies somewhat from the Boston edition...does not contain the following pieces, both of which are in the Boston edition: `The Mystery of the Hacienda' and `My First Book.' Contains `The Home-Coming of Jim Wilkes,' which had prior publication in A Protege of Jack Hamlin's, Boston, 1894."--BAL. Sadleir notes, "This edition followed the American by a week or two," however BAL suggests that the publication of both editions may have been simultaneous. Sadleir also calls for an undated catalogue, though the catalogue here is dated "Sept. 1894." A very good copy.
Sinopsis
Where the North Fork of the Stanislaus River begins to lose its youthful grace, vigor, and agility, and broadens more maturely into the plain, there is a little promontory which at certain high stages of water lies like a small island in the stream. To the strongly- marked heroics of Sierran landscape it contrasts a singular, pastoral calm. White and gray mosses from the overhanging rocks and feathery alders trail their filaments in its slow current, and between the woodland openings there are glimpses of vivid velvet sward, even at times when the wild oats and wire-grasses of the plains are already yellowing.
