Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Special Edition. A very good copy in the 'Edition De Luxe' binding. Three-quarter leather over green marbled paper with matching end-papers. Top edge gilt. This style is much less commonly seen than the usual red cloth offering. The binding is firm and tight with only minor wear to the leather extremities. The marbled end-papers are uncracked. The pages are clean and bright and there are no ownership inscriptions or other markings of any kind. Francis Marion Crawford (August 2, 1854 April 9, 1909) was an American writer noted for his many novels, especially those set in Italy, and for his classic weird and fantastic stories. Year by year Crawford published a number of successful novels. Late in the 1890s, he began to write his historical works. In these, his intimate knowledge of local Italian history combines with the romanticist's imaginative faculty to excellent effect. His shorter book Constantinople (1895) belongs to this category. After most of his fictional works had been published, most came to think he was a gifted narrator; and his books of fiction, full of historic vitality and dramatic characterization, became widely popular among readers to whom the realism of problems or the eccentricities of subjective analysis were repellent. In The Novel: What It Is (1893), he defended his literary approach, self-conceived as a combination of romanticism and realism, defining the art form in terms of its marketplace and audience. The novel, he wrote, is 'a marketable commodity' and 'intellectual artistic luxury' that 'must amuse, indeed, but should amuse reasonably, from an intellectual point of view.Its intention is to amuse and please, and certainly not to teach and preach; but in order to amuse well it must be a finely-balanced creation.'. In 1901 the American Macmillan firm began a deluxe uniform 'edition' of his novels, as reprintings required. Around 1914 the subscription firm McKinlay, Stone, Mackenzie was authorized to publish an 'edition' using the Macmillan binding decorations. Seller Inventory # NT001314
