Cable, George W.
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons. 1902. First Edition. Hard Cover. Signed Presentation Copy. 1ST EDITION. INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR. Very good in red cloth covered boards with gilt lettering to front board and spine with decoration in black and gold. Minor fading to spine and minor wear to spine ends. Cable's inscription is to a Mr. Young and reads, "Haven't you noticed? When we write playfully, the book noticers (who really think they are critics!) sneer because we're not serious; and when we write seriously, they snort because we're not playful." A beautiful copy with color frontis piece and intact tissue guard. 215 pages. Literature. LIT1809071. Very Good.
