Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. THE NE'ER DO-WELL By REX BEACH With Four Illustrations by: Howard Chandler Christy Published by: A. L. Burt Company Publishers New York Published on August 11, 1911 (This is the First American Printing of this book) CONTENTS: (see photos for the contents) STORYLINE: Ne'er-Do-Well is a 1911 adventure novel that blends romance, travel, and moral conflict, set against the backdrop of early 20th-century New York and Panama. The story follows Kirk Anthony, a wealthy, charming but irresponsible young man, the son of railroad magnate Darwin K. Anthony. Kirk lives a life of luxury - expensive dinners, fancy cars, and the New York nightlife - while ignoring his father's pleas to settle down and take a serious career. His circle includes flamboyant friends like Adelbert Higgins, and his lifestyle is marked by recklessness and a lack of responsibility. One night, Kirk is drawn into a chaotic situation involving a mistaken identity. A man trying to escape the law tricks Kirk into taking his place, and Kirk is kidnapped by friends who put him on a ship to Panama under the alias "Jefferson Locke". He has no money and must work to earn his passage home. In short, THE NE'ER-DO-WELL is a tale of a young man's reckless life, a mistaken identity that launches him into a perilous journey, and the personal growth that comes from facing the consequences of one's actions.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Rex Ellingwood Beach (b: 1 SEP 1877 - d: 7 DEC 1949) Rex Beach was a prominent early 20th century American writer whose works drew heavily on his experiences in Alaska during the Klondike Gold Rush. His storytelling style emphasized action, frontier life, and melodrama, earning him comparisons to Jack London. Notable works: The Spoilers (1906), The Silver Horde (1909), The Barrier (1908) Career highlights: First author to insist on including film rights in publishing contracts. More than 30 novels; over 30 film adaptations of his works. Other roles: Olympic silver medalist in water polo (1904). Legacy Beach was one of the most commercially successful adventure writers of his era, though later critics viewed his work as formulaic. His novels remain significant for their role in early American popular fiction and film adaptation history. Howard Chandler Christy (illustrator).…
