About This Item
The FM Lupton Publishing Company Book. Very Good. Hardcover. Award wining author's FIRST book! VG++/none. 375 pages, + 2 pages of ads : New Century United Typewriter and Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup for Children Teething 1840-1900. Light brown/caramel boards blindstamped with vines/honeysuckle type flowers and bees along the front and spine. No date, but looks to be published around 1900, judged by the ads at the back. Set in pre Civil War South, it follows the struggles and romances of 2 sisters. Made into a short movie starring Violet Heming in 1910. Best selling and prolific American author who published 39 popular novels as well as short stories. Her first novel, this one: Tempest and Sunshine, sold 250,000 copies. Since the late 20th Century she has received fresh recognition and repraisal, though her popular work was excluded from most 19th Century Literary histories compiled by men..
