Sobre este artículo
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1885. First Edition. First printing per BAL, with text dimensions 7" x 4-5/8" and 4pp publisher's catalogue titled "Out-Door Books." Octavo (18.5cm). Pictorial brown cloth, stamped in black, titled in gilt on spine; [iv],196,[6]pp; 4pp of publisher's ads at rear. Bookplate of the Greenfield Library Association. Sound and bright but rubbed, with a slight forward lean: around Very Good.
The prolific Murfree's third book, reprinted often (including 4 printings in the first year) but uncommon in the first edition. Murfree's first novel, "In the Tennessee Mountains," is a classic of Tennessee fiction and is considered by Boger to be the "granddaddy of all mountaineer tales ... [it] gave great impetus to the rise of the genre." The present title is missed by Wright and Boger. BAL 14802.
