Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

SCARCE: A lovely example of this rare tome on Passaconaway attributed to William James Sidis. Dk. Blue Bds with Gilt Titles. 343 pp with 16 Full Page Illustrations-(Photos of the area). Includes a Signed (typed) Letter by the Author to Mr. F. H. Gray, Manager, Gray's Inn, Jackson, N.H. which outlines the placement of 2 copies of the book for sale at the Inn, dated Conway, NH, Sept. 15, 1922. Also included is the Original dust wrapper in good nearly complete (about 95%) condition. It would benefit from an archivists hand as it has separated along the very fragile folds and is in several pieces. Photos available NOTE: I have done much research on this title over the past few months and it has quite a history. According to many sources it was actually written by William James Sidis the great child prodigy. This can be verified through several online sites such as The Official Sidis Archival Site and several others. However there are some who say there is evidence to the contrary, I am one of them. I have met folks who know the lineal descendants of CH. E. Beals and they indeed proclaim their relative to be the author, but. they also elude to the distinct possibility that the story actually came from W. J. Sidis who was a friend of the family during that time in Conway, NH. Sidis was well-known for psudonyms, perhaps he just decided (with Beals consent) to use the Beals name instead of his own as the author. After all this time who really knows? And either way it is a teriffic book on Passaconaway and quite scarce in First Edition with the very elusive Original dust wrapper.
