About This Item
Boston: J. Stillman Smith, 1896. Hardcover. Very Good. This landmark work of American short fiction is set during the American Civil War and tells the tale of Philip Nolan, a young man who renounces his loyalty to the United States and is subsequently sentenced to spend the rest of his life on a naval ship without ever hearing news of his country or setting foot on land again. The story is notable for its meditation on patriotism, duty, and love of country, as well as its poignant portrayal of the isolation and loneliness of Nolan's punishment. 12mo, 45 pp. Tan cloth with title and image of American flag on front board. From private collection. Small closed tear along top edge of ffep.
