Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Later printing. An attractive copy of this novel, set against the backdrop of the great Chicago fire, originally published in serial form in the New York Evangelist in 1872, but which became the most popular book of the year when it appeared in book form. Roe was a Lutheran minister who saw his books as a way of spreading the message of Christ, but as literary scholar Charles Byler noted, this was also "the first novel set in Chicago that dealt with the city as an urban environment rather than as a frontier settlement - examined topics that would become part of the Chicago literary tradition. These include the moral implications of a market economy that enriched some but left others in poverty, the role of conspicuous consumption in defining the city’s social hierarchy, and the question of whether those who arrived in the city in search of success could make a place for themselves without sacrificing their principles." - Issues which are still being wrestled with today. The final page includes a sketch of a "little house" from the Chicago Shelter Committee, as an example of providing inexpensive housing. 472 pp. Very good in dark green cloth with gilt lettering, white border on front cover, small decoration on spine, top edge gilt. Gift inscription dated Christmas 1904 on front endpaper.…

Shopbeschreibung

Bookfever.com - the name used by Volk and Iiams, Booksellers- specializes in first editions of twentieth century literature, with an emphasis on women authors, African American, Native American and Latin American authors - plus mystery & detective fiction, science fiction & fantasy, poetry and children's & illustrated books.

Of the approximately 60,000 volumes in stock, the majority are hardcover first editions, although we also stock vintage science fiction paperbacks as well as sf digests and pulps. We also have a large selection of books signed by the author and uncorrected proof copies. Only about 50% of our stock is catalogued, so please inquire if you are searching for specific titles. We have been selling books by mail order and on the internet since 1993. We have a large booth dedicated to books (called Books Upstairs) at the Antiques Upstairs Mall, 5 Main Street, Jackson, CA. (open every day from 10-5) The emphasis there is on Western Americana, children¿s books and inexpensive reading copies. In 1998 we relocated our main business from Sacramento to the Sierra foothills of Amador County, about 35 miles east of downtown Sacramento and between Ione & Sutter Creek. There, on 10 acres of rolling oak-covered hills, we built a "bookhouse" for our books.
