NEW YORK: DILLINGHAM, 1910. First American Edition 1st Printing. Cloth. Fine/No Jacket. First Printing. From the recently auctioned collection of M. B. Goldstone--with the auction tag tipped in and his penciled signature to the front free endpaper. This copy is signed by Bower (B. M. Sinclair) on the title page--in her pen name without any inscriptions. A superb and fine copy in red cloth with black and gold decorations and lettering to the front board and spine. A tight and clean copy, sturdy spine and hinges--mint condition with only a little dustiness to the page edges. Bower was a prolific author of Western fiction at it's heyday--the early part of the 20th Century. A very collectable copy.
