About This Item
First binding in decorative not pictorial cloth, [BAL 4522]. Van Bibber meets Cinderella. The final story is a twist on Kipling's story: here it is "The Reporter Who Made Himself King".
Synopsis
From the book:The servants of the Hotel Salisbury, which is so called because it is situated on Broadway and conducted on the American plan by a man named Riggs, had agreed upon a date for their annual ball and volunteer concert, and had announced that it would eclipse every other annual ball in the history of the hotel. As the Hotel Salisbury had been only two years in existence, this was not an idle boast, and it had the effect of inducing many people to buy the tickets, which sold at a dollar apiece, and were good for "one gent and a lady," and entitled the bearer to a hat-check without extra charge.
