Description:
New York: The Macmillan Company, 1930. Hardcover. Near Fine. The book is signed by Gregory Clark on the front free endpaper. His bookplate is on the front pastedown endpaper. I suspect this is the Gregory Clark who was a Canadian war veteran, journalist, and humourist. "A reporter for the Toronto Star from 1911 through 1946, Clark gained fame in Canada for his coverage of various news events of the 1920s and 1930s, and particularly for his front-line coverage of World War II." The book plate has a hunting/fishing motif, and Clark was known to be an avid outdoorsman. Tight binding. No chips, tears, creases. Erasure of the number 10 on front free endpaper has left an impression mark. Brown coverboards with gilt embossed lettering. Black and white photograph on frontis showing author fishing. Illustrated with drawings and photos. Size: Sm 8vo (7.5" to 8"). 143 pp.
