Sobre este artículo
Garden City: Doubleday, Page & Company, 1914. One of the most intriguing works by Norris. Noted for his muckraking novels, this is actually a horror story with a werewolf theme. Written in 1895 during a very prolific time for the author, it was presumed lost in the San Francisco earthquake and only published posthumously. This is a Very Good (Plus) to Near Fine copy of the First Edition; lacking the dustjacket. Brick red ribbed cloth binding, ruled on the front cover; gilt titling on the sp[ine and front cover. Very mild wear at the margins, top a bit dusty, gilt on spine a tad faded. Page 332, a crease; and newsprint bookmark has left offset to pages 64-65. A solid copy of this literary outlier. In an archival plastic protector.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
