About This Item
London: Hamish Hamilton [0-241-89185-X] 1975, 1st printing. (Hardcover) 419pp. Very good in very good dust jacket. Top edge stained red, notes, photographs, illustrations, bibliography, index. The back cover and rear panel of the dust jacket is dampstained with a slight waving to the final pages of the book, and the dust jacket is faded along the spine. "Almost from the moment of his birth in Galway in 1856, Frank Harris was surrounded by myth and exaggeration, very often perpetrated by himself, but also embroidered by detractors and fanatical supporters. James Thomas, as he was christened, suffered from a withdrawn, puritanical, insensitive father and his notorious sexual adventures were partly an effort to get the love and praise that he lacked. He could not live without the reassurance and excitement of constant affairs. It is as a sexual athlete and liar that posterity has classed him". Also known as James Thomas. Biography of Frank Harris. Time Period 19th Century & Victorian. (Biography, Biography).
