First Edition consisting of 8400 copies preceded only by a pre-publication copyright issue. Probably the best-known story in this collection is "Planchette" -- in which the spirit of a woman's dead father returns to kill her lover; it showed that Jack had evidently not outgrown his mother's belief in evil spirits. By the time MOON-FACE came out Jack had journeyed to the Far East to cover the Russo-Japanese War for the Hearst organization -- at which he tried to emulate the Great White Scribe of the period Richard Harding Davis. He badly injured an ankle on in a leaping game with the other correspondents on board ship: "It was the beginning of a morbid worry about his physical condition a long anxiety that would end only with his death" Sinclair. He returned to California to discover that his wife had attached his Hearst earnings in her suit for divorce Bess ultimately agreed to a divorce on the grounds of desertion after he offered to build a home in Piedmont for her and their two daughters. This is a bright near-fine copy light rubbing at the extremities -- of this handsomely-bound book. Sisson & Martens p. 28; Blanck 11895. <br/><br/> hardcover books
