Sobre este artículo
Harper & Brothers, 1923. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Presentation copy, signed and inscribed by Zane Grey to noted singer & actor Rudy Vallee, radio host, one of America's first teen idols: 'To Rudy Vallee In appreciation of a pleasant night at the Grove and your great show. Zane Grey.' A great presentation copy, associating two famous Hollywood figures. Although Vallee was best known as a singer and radio host, he starred in dozens of films over decades. Grey's scripts and novels were the basis of some 112 films, and he founded his own motion picture company (later sold to Jesse Lasky). The Groove would have been a reference to the famous Cocoanut Grove in the Ambassador Hotel. First edition hardcover in jacket complete with $3.00 price on flap and Harper date code of 'I.X.' on copyright page. Book and jacket are very good and attractiive (book has slight wear and offset to endpapers; jacket has some visible nicks and minor chips to edges, and a separation with an expert interior mend).Color Illustrations by Charles S. Chapman and Frank Street.
Reseñas
El May 12 2020, un lector dijo:
The lonely prospector with his faithful companion, the lowly burro, receives the respect and admiration they so richly deserve in the title story in this collection of five short stories or novellas. The character of Tappan is your usual grizzled, haunted by the past, type; but his faithfulness and loyalty to his beloved partner more than makes up for the stereotype. Jenet, the burro, has a most prominent role in the story, and this story is as good as the ones ZG wrote about the lion dog, Don, or the wild stallion, Wildfire. The other stories in this collection are just as good, and these people come to life as only Zane Grey can make it happen. A solid group of tales of adventure ranging from the desert Southwest to the jungles of Central America. I recommend this book most highly.
