Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (Tom Sawyer's Comrade)
by TWAIN, MARK
- Used
- Hardcover
- first
New York: Charles L. Webster and Company, 1885. Square octavo. 366pp. First American edition, early state, in the scarce blue cloth publisher's binding. The following BAL issue points apply: pages 13 and 57 are first state, page 155 is third state, page 283 is third state. With 173 illustrations by E.W. Kemble and photogravure frontispiece portrait bust by Karl Gerhardt, which is second state. Huck Finn is indisputably Twain's greatest novel and one of the most important works of American literature. T.S. Eliot wrote, "We come to see Huck as one of the permanent symbolic figures of fiction," and Hemingway once said that "all modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain." Small closed tears to bottom margins of first two blanks and Illustrations leaf (page 13); small stains to a few leaves, not affecting the text; minor toning to spine. All in all a fine copy in a remarkably fresh and bright example of the blue binding, which was offered by the publisher so that this title would match its companion, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Housed in a blue cloth chemise and leather-backed cloth slipcase, which shows some general wear and toning.

St. Ives: Being The Adventures of a French Prisoner in England (1897) is an unfinished novel by Robert Louis Stevenson. It was completed in 1898 by Arthur Quiller-Couch. Unable to write, Stevenson dictated thirty chapters of the novel to his stepdaughter as a diversion from his debilitating illness. He alternated dictating St. Ives and The Weir of Hermiston but gradually lost interest in the former. The plot concerns the adventures of the dashing Capitaine Jacques St. Ives, a Napoleonic soldier, after his capture by the British. Condition: Corners bumped and rubbed, shelf wear, hinges and spine heal moderately rubbed, previous owner's name on front end paper else a very good copy.
