DeMontreville was a former teammate of Hall of Famers Kid Nichols Billy Hamilton and Vic Willis for the 1901-1902 Boston Beaneaters later Boston Braves and Connie Mack for the 1894 Pittsburgh Pirates. He also played on the 1900 National League Champion Brooklyn Superbas later Brooklyn Dodgers. His 36-game hitting streak for the Washington Senators from 1896-1897 ranks as the 10th longest in Major League Baseball history.

Hardcover. moderate shelfwear slight bumping/indentation at left side of lower edge of front cover; jacket is somewhat tattered with considerable paper loss surrounding both top and bottom of spine soiling to rear panel various other tears and edge-nicks etc. A major work of film theory by this prominent Hungarian film critic and theoretician 1884-1949 here translated into English for the first time -- posthumously alas. "This book may be said to be the sum of thirty years of thought and practical work. It is both an historical review of the development of film art -- a development which Balázs believes to be as yet scarce begun -- and an attempt to establish its specific laws and draw the line which divides it from all other arts." .
