Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Collectible-Very Good. Original typescript on blue paper with holograph and typed corrections. A Very Good copy. 8 1/2" x 11." 251 leaves (some page numbers are missing but this could be due to the typescript being a draft; some page numbers are also divvied into subpages, such as Page 8 and Page 8a). No i…llustrations in this draft, but the published book included illustrations by William Siegel. Most of the holograph corrections are in pencil, a few are in black ink. Chapters I-VIII have the most holograph corrections that appear every other page or so. Chapters IX-XV have fewer handwritten corrections (a few per chapter) but several pages within each of these chapters have typed corrections. Typescript is clean and intact overall. Pages have edge wear and some are dog-eared. Some pages have slight dampstaining along the edges. Paper clips holding the pages of each chapter have left rust spots, some of which affect typed text and handwritten corrections; however, said text and corrections are still readable. "Chapter XV: Of the Lands Beyond Persia" or "Chapter XVI: Of the Lands Between the Black Sea and the Red" is missing from this draft (the last chapter is labeled as "Chapter XV" but has the title of Chapter XVI). This is an earlier draft of Merriam Sherwood's and Elmer Mantz's book, The Road to Cathay. Merriam Sherwood (1892-1961) was an author of children's literature. The co-author, Elmer Mantz, was also Sherwood's husband. Mantz had an extensive writing career and specialized in scholarly literature. The Road to Cathay is aimed toward a juvenile audience and is about thirteenth- and fourteenth-century explorers and their travels to China and other parts of Asia and surrounding areas. Explorers named in The Road to Cathay include Friar John of Piano Carpini, Friar Odoric of Pordenone, William of Rubruck, Ibn Battuta, and Marco Polo. Table of Contents included which lists the following chapters: "The Wayfarers," "The Moving City," "The Golden Horde," "The Road to Karakorum," "The Road to Cambaluc," "Of the Great City of Cambaluc," "Cathayan Marvels," "Of What Lay South-West of Cambaluc," "What the Travelers Saw When They Went South from Cambaluc Along the Sea," "Of the Great Cities of Manzi," "Of the Islands of the South," "The Four Rivers of Paradise," "The Wonders of Ind," "Of the Land of Persia," "Of the Lands Beyond Persia," and "Of the Lands Between the Black Sea and the Red.". Inscribed by Author(s).
