About this Item
A first edition of this intriguing poetical work by the American author Francis Bret Harte. Francis Bret Harte was an American short story writer and poet, best remembered for his short fiction featuring miners, gamblers, and other romantic figures of the California Gold Rush. In a career spanning more than four decades, he wrote poetry, plays, lectures, book reviews, editorials, and magazine sketches in addition to fiction. As he moved from California to the eastern U.S. to Europe, he incorporated new subjects and characters into his stories, but his Gold Rush tales have been most often reprinted, adapted, and admired. In the original cloth binding. Externally, smart. Light marking to the boards. Light bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities, with a little sunning to the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and generally clean, with the odd spot throughout, and light foxing to the first and last few pages. Very Good. Seller Inventory # GEN15-F-10
