Sobre este artículo
Toronto, Ont: Thomas Allen. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1936. Linen hardcover. Black linen covered hard boards with yellow titles to the cover and spine. Spine bumping and some wear to the corners, but overall in very good condition. Light rubbing to the covers, with a clean, bright interior. "Folktale, memoir, fiction, literary hoax, "The Yellow Briar" is all of these. Ostensibly the charming remembrance of an Irish orphan who escapes the Great Famine of 1840s Ireland and comes to the New World to seek a fresh start on the streets of Toronto and in the pioneer hinterland of Canada West (Ontario) , the book was actually a fictional humbug perpetrated by John Mitchell, a Toronto lawyer, who first published the tale in 1933. Patrick Slater, the protagonist of the "memoir," is said to have died in 1924 but not before setting his saga down on paper." ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 253 pages .
