Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Green cloth binding with gilt titles and decorations. Plate frontispiece and 6 plate illustrations.Some wear and tears, previous owner name inside. with 1907 date on one copy, no markings on the other, 624 pages "Kirby¿s importance as a Canadian writer rests largely on his novel The Golden Dog. Taking fifteen years to write, the historical romance was set in New France in 1748. Kirby finished writing this novel in 1873. Although the first edition of the book was filled with errors, it was still very well received by the public and to Kirby¿s delight, rumored to have been read by Queen Victoria. The book was described as having both good characterization and description used to describe rural and urban locations. This novel was heavily influenced by the collection Maple Leaves, written by Quebec author James LeMoine (7 vol. 1863-1906). This provided Kirby with the history, legends, and oral traditions needed to write his book. The Golden Dog was initially published in English and distributed within the United States without his permission in 1877. Kirby¿s publisher Lovell, Adam Wesson and Company neglected to register the novel properly, so Kirby lost all royalties for his book. The copyright laws of the time stated all Canadian residents must register, publish, and distribute in Canada first, before distributing the book elsewhere, to secure copyright protection. The book was then picked up by New York publisher Richard Worthington, and re-issued in 1878, Kirby, once again, was neglected royalties. In 1885, Kirby secured some rights when the French translation (Le Chien d¿Or) was published. Copied versions of the story were, at this time, widely available, but unfortunately for Kirby, the translated version was not selling nearly as well. Sometime later, Kirby was approached by L.C. Page and Company, a publishing company from Boston with an offer of publishing a revised version of The Golden Dog. Kirby accepted this offer and revised the book, making corrections to the book in accordance with new developments in Quebec¿s history." Wikipedia. All pages in good shape but front plate and first page separated from binding.
