About This Item
New York: George Munro's Sons, Publishing, 1900. Measuring approximately 7.5" x 5" with 399 numbered pages.
This book is in good minus condition. Moderate bumping to both ends of spine. Gilt lettering and design on spine still full and vivid. Christmas gift inscription from 1900 on front endpaper. Front endpaper and title page are loose. Rear hinge is cracked exposing mesh on pastedown.
The book is a bildungsroman whose protagonist, Micah Clarke, begins as a boy seeking adventure in a rather romantic and naive way, falls under the influence of an older and vastly experienced, world-weary soldier of fortune, and becomes a grown up after numerous experiences, some of them very harrowing.
