Barrie; The Home of Romance; A Little Dinner in Arcady. Fourth Edition, 1895. "Robert Bridges was born in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania on July 13, 1858 to John and Mary Bridges. Throughout his long literary career, Bridges was often confused with the British poet laureate of the same name, and hence often signed his writings with the nickname "Droch", a Gaelic translation of his name, in order to differentiate himself. He spent six years (1881-1887) as the assistant editor of the New York Evening Post. A man of many talents, Bridges also held the position of literary critic for Life, writing hundreds of reviews over a span of seven years (1883-1890). After leaving the Post, Bridges became the assistant editor (1887-1914), and later the editor-in-chief (1914-1930), of Scribner's Magazine. Although he retired in 1930, he remained with Scribner's as a literary adviser, continuing to make daily trips in to his office until the magazine stopped publication in 1939. In addition to his editing jobs, Bridges published a variety of his own material, including two novels: Overheard in Arcady, a prose dialogue (1894), and Suppressed Chapters (1895). Lightly faded spine with slightly age-toned bottom and fore- text block edges, else, Prinstine, no wear. Clean, tight and strong binding with no underlining, highlighting or marginalia. Burgundy cloth with gilt figure and gilt lettering of title and pseudonym 'Droch' on front board, gilt lettering to spine, and gilt top text block edge. Size: 8vo. Book.
