CHURCHILL, WINSTON

The Crossing

NY: The Macmillan Company, 1904. 1st Edition. First Printing. Hard Cover. Illustrated by Sydney Adamson and Lilian Bayliss. First edition, first printing. Publisher's full burgundy cloth, gilt lettering, decoration, and borders on spine and cover, t.e.g. Illustrated with seven full-page, full-color paintings, including tissue-protected frontispiece, by Sydney Adamson and Lilian Bayliss. In this novel, Davy Richie recounts his travels with George Rogers Clark, who has assembled a volunteer army to seize British outposts north of the Ohio River during the American Revolution. Winston Churchill (1871 – 1947) was an American best-selling novelist of the early 20th century. He is nowadays overshadowed, even as a writer, by the more famous British statesman of the same name, to whom he was not related. His first novel to appear in book form was The Celebrity (1898). Churchill's next novel—Richard Carvel (1899) — was a phenomenal success. It sold some two million copies in a nation of only 76 million people, and made Churchill rich. His other commercially successful novels included The Crisis (1901), The Crossing (1904), Coniston (1906), Mr. Crewe's Career (1908) and The Inside of the Cup (1913), all of which ranked first on the best-selling American novel list in the years indicated. The volume is in excellent condition, with only minor hints of wear at the head and heel of the spine, and corners, else fine; unmarked, tight, square, and clean. NEAR FINE. Color Plates. 12mo 7" - 7½" tall. 598, (2-adverts) pp. Near Fine with no dust jacket .

Edwin O'Connor (1918 - 1968) was an American radio personality, journalist, and novelist who won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1962 for The Edge of Sadness (1961). His novels focused on the Irish-American experience and often dealt with the lives of politicians and priests. His last novel, All in the Family, appeared in 1966. (It has no connection at all to the later television series of the same name). It is a profile of a Massachusetts family with a driving father who has political ambitions for his sons. It is not a roman à clef but the clan is certainly reminiscent of the Kennedy family.. The volume is unmrked, tight and square. The dust jacket, now in Mylar, is chipped at the head and heel of the spine and has a 1" closed tear on the front panel. NEAR FINE/VERY GOOD..
