About This Item
Boston: Arena Publishing Co, 1893. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. Thin 12mo, 103pp. A crisp, sound copy, very good, in the publisher's light blue cloth, decorated in silver. Spotting/soiling to baords, but the contents clean and bright. This copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Hubbard on a front blank: "To Miss Tyler with the high esteem of Elbert Hubbard." One of Hubbard's first published books, preceding Roycroft by two years, and published by Arena Publishing Co., the liberal/progressive magazine out of Boston that helped to cultivate Hubbard's soft, craft-based utopianism. Unlike many of the "Little Journeys" and other Roycroft publications, which are easy to find signed by Hubbard, this early novel, with a contemporary inscription, is considerably scarcer thus.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
