About this Item
Description:
Small 8vo. Grey cloth with black lettering. 346pp. Color frontispiece. Very good. Binding faintly edgeworn, but internally tight and near fine. Nice first edition of this collection of six Western short stories, the title tale of which was turned into a silent film in 1921. This copy bears an Autograph Letter Signed from White neatly tipped to verso of frontispiece: 1p, 5" X 7¼", Dinard, France, 19 August 1900. Addressed to Mr. Johnson. Very good. Writing from Villa Riche Fontaine in the posh seaside resort of Dinard, White chats with this editor or publisher about a book he is trying to get published: "the mss of 'Concerning Dukes'. must have become side-tracked in Paris. My particular style of yarn misses you in some way. On my return to America. I will do myself the pleasure of calling at your office, and can then get a better idea of what you read." Handsomely penned in White's petite script and boldly signed in full. Recipient initials in blue editor's pencil at upper right ("RWG") and at bottom adds "author of 'The Girl that Got Rattled'" -- which became one of two stories that formed the basis for the recent film "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs.".

Soft cover. Condition: Good. Please see any and all photos connected with this listing. A bit scuffed but all pages intact and legible. Good reading copy. Clean. No store stamps. --- --- YOUNG ADULT FICTION --- A collection of stories by Stewart Edward White --- --- It happened when I was a kid and didn't know any better than to do such things. They dared me to go up to Hooper's ranch and stay all night; and as I had no information on either the ranch or its owner, I saddled up and went. It was only twelve miles from our Box Springs ranch?a nice easy ride. I should explain that heretofore I had ridden the Gila end of our range, which is so far away that only vague rumours of Hooper had ever reached me at all. He was reputed a tough old devil with horrid habits; but that meant little to me. The tougher and horrider they came, the better they suited me?so I thought. Just to make everything entirely clear I will add that this was in the year of 1897 and the Soda Springs valley in Arizona. By these two facts you old timers will gather the setting of my tale. Indian days over; "nester" days with frame houses and vegetable patches not yet here. Still a few guns packed for business purposes; Mexican border handy; no railroad in to Tombstone yet; cattle rustlers lingering in the Galiuros; train hold-ups and homicide yet prevalent but frowned upon; favourite tipple whiskey toddy with sugar; but the old fortified ranches all gone; longhorns crowded out by shorthorn blaze-head Herefords or near-Herefords; some indignation against Alfred Henry Lewis's Wolfville as a base libel; and, also but, no gasoline wagons or pumps, no white collars, no tourists pervading the desert, and the Injins still wearing blankets and overalls at their reservations instead of bead work on the railway platforms when the Overland goes through. In other words, we were wild and wooly, but sincerely didn't know it. . .See photos for additional content. . . Seller Inventory # 44554
