Sobre este artículo
Columbia, S.C.: The State Company, 1908. [8], 160 pages, plus frontispiece and three full-page plates by Brantley Smith. Original dark green cloth stamped in gold and black. [19.6 cm.] Ex-Sondley Reference library with no external markings, but a barely perceptible impression of removed call number at base of spine. Tasteful bookplate on front pastedown, embossed stamp on a few leaves, including title and frontispiece, and small ink stamp on verso of title and in margin of one other leaf. Else very good. Some tiny spots to cloth; faint line of bubbling to cloth on front cover; light foxing to margins of plates and facing pages. FIRST EDITION. The title story is set during the Appomattox campaign and another ("Sons of the Soil") is also a Civil War tale. Elliott Crayton McCants (1865-1953), a native of Ninety-Six, South Carolina and a graduate of the Citadel, was a school teacher in various places before settling in Anderson, S.C., where he served as superintendent of schools. This was his second book, following the novel, "In the Red Hills" (1904). He later wrote the "History, Stories and Legends of South Carolina" (1927) and several other novels. Turnbull V, p. 44.
