ALDEN, Winthrop. - The Lost Million.

New York, Dodd Mead 1913. Octavo publisher's green cloth with onlaid colour illustration. A couple of minute flaws to the onlay but an excellent, bright copy. ¶ First edition. An obscure, uncommon and ripe thriller with mysterious adventurers - male and female, mysterious charges, mysterious threats, exotic strangers, and mysterious, exotic, threatening strangers, all surrounding an ancient Egyptian bronze cylinder which contains a deadly secret. Hubin denotes Winthrop Alden to be the pseudonym of a distinguished author but can't help more. Winthrop Alden was a character in Henry van Dyke's 'The Ruling Passion' (1901) but there are real people with the name.
