xiii+338 pages with plates, Appendices, bibliography and index. Octavo (8 3/4" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's brown cloth with gilt lettering to spine. First edition. There are those who write fiction and those who live it. The man known as B Traven, for whatever reasons - theatrical, political, romantic, pathological (and all of these motives have been ascribed to him) - fell dramatically into both camps. The author of such bristling adventures as "The Treasure of Sierra Madre" made of his own identity one of the most elusive literary mysteries of the twentieth century and the unraveling of it in this remarkable book makes better reading than most thrillers. Condition: Very good to fine in a near fine jacket.
