1906135531906. New York: The Macmillan Company 1906. 4 pp undated ads. Original blue cloth decorated in white green and gilt. 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

1917137651917. Mountfort. New York: The Macmillan Company 1917. 10 pp undated ads. Original red-brown cloth with dog silhouettes in black. First Edition of this posthumously-published book published about six months after JERRY OF THE ISLANDS. Though both books were written by Jack in Honolulu as cash-raising hackwork MICHAEL BROTHER OF JERRY was a better book. It argued that far worse than the Social Pit for men were the cages for trained dogs and circus animals. All the foul tricks of the trade were exposed. So effective was his indignation that hundreds of London clubs sprang up on the publication of the book dedicated to ending the trade in performing animals. Sinclair By the time Jack wrote this book in late 1915 on his and Charmian's second trip to Hawaii during 1915-1916 Jack was swilling so much fruit juice as it helped flush out the toxins his kidneys couldn't handle that he was becoming quite fat. He rarely stirred out of his kimono and his hammock. He felt too ill to walk more than a block and he preferred to take the chauffeur and the car for the shortest excursion. This is a near-fine copy very slightly rubbed at the extremities but the title page bears a blind-stamp and the paste-down an ink-stamp of an early Maine bookseller.
