Description

218 p. + Six illustrations by Charles Dana Gibson. 12mo. 197mm. Original red cloth binding, lettered in gold. Top edge gold; other edges uncut. Includes the stories: 'The King's Jackal' and 'The Reporter Who Made Himself King.' A better than very good copy. Richard Harding Davis (1864-1916) was a famous American author and journalist. In 1890 he became managing editor of Harper's Weekly and began making trips in its behalf to various parts of theworld. As a foreign correspondent he covered all the wars of his day and published several books recording his experiences. His war dispatches were colorful and dramatic. His other writings include some of the best tales to come out of the Edwardian era. The illustrator, Charles Dana Gibson (1867-1944), is especially famous as a delineator of aristocratic social ideals; most notably that of the ideal woman who came to be known as the Gibson Girl. His incisive drawings of fashionable life often convey both humor and understanding. He illustrated numerous books, including several for Richard Harding Davis. W53
