Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Stingaree by E. W. Hornung - Adventure Novel about a Gentleman Outlaw in the Australian Bush. Author of the Raffles Books. American Reprint Published in 1908 by Charles Scribner's Sons. Hardcover Format. English author Ernest William Hornung is mostly remembered as the creator of the exciting detective series featuring the wily Raffles, a gentleman thief. Hornung was a prolific author, whose works were admired by the likes of Rudyard Kipling and Arthur Conan Doyle. In fact, Hornung married Doyle's sister, Constance. Hornung set quite a few of his stories in the Australian outback, and "Stingaree" is one of those. It also appeared as a play. Stingaree is a gentleman outlaw - a stagecoach hold-up man - but he maintains a certain demeanor which reflects a developed sense of style, ego - and ethics, despite his dubious choice of career. The book is illustrated by artist George W. Lambert. This handsome hardcover is the Charles Scribner's Sons 1908 reprint. TITLE : Stingaree. AUTHOR : E. W. Hornung (Ernest William Hornung , 1866 - 1921) ILLUSTRATOR : George W. Lambert. IMPRINT : Charles Scribner's Sons. PLACE : New York DATE : 1908. EDITION : American Reprint PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION : Trade hardcover; contains seven monochrome plate illustrations, including frontispiece; 279 pages; approximately 5 1/4" x 7 1/2', cloth-covered boards with gilt lettering and embellishment. The cloth is a finely ribbed maroon; top text-block edge gilt. CONDITION -- VERY GOOD -- This is a previously owned book with moderate wear that remains clean and serviceable, with the following attributes and imperfections and noted: EXTERIOR - Spine extremities are compressed; head of spine is slightly frayed; gilt title and embellishment are bright. Board surfaces are mildly rubbed; there is just a touch of scuff to the rear board; top edge gilt is mildly rubbed, but basically still bright. BINDING - Solid. No leaves are detached or loose. INTERIOR - Frontispiece lacks tissue guard; A few of the leaf edges have tears where the first reader separated the leaves somewhat carelessly. I've shown a picture of the most egregious tear above with a magnified section, showing clearly the loss to that leaf edge. (The reader was a little too impatient to keep reading!) This is the only tear I spotted with such loss, however there are a few closed tears on other leaves. For the most part the interior is clean and unmarked. George W. Lambert (illustrator).…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an eye-opening journey through the once-mysterious world of Chicago's historic Union Stock Yards and slaughterhouses. The author, a keen observer and experienced guide, takes readers on a captivating tour, revealing the intricate processes and surprising facts behind the meatpacking industry's golden age. Beyond the vivid descriptions of animal handling, butchery, and meat processing, this book offers insights into the broader context of the industry. It sheds light on the working conditions, technological advancements, and the crucial role these facilities played in shaping Chicago's identity. However, underlying the historical narrative is a consistent thread of ethical considerations and a recognition of the sacrifices made by both animals and workers. This book is not merely a historical account; it's an exploration of the complex relationship between humans, animals, and the food we consume. Through meticulous research and engaging storytelling, the author encourages readers to confront the realities of industrial-scale meat production and consider the ethical implications that extend beyond the slaughterhouse.
