About This Item
NY: Appleton-Century-Crofts. Good+ in Good Dust Jacket. 1948. Book Club Edition. Hardcover. This is the story of Gaudy Robertson--actor, roustabout, gambler, river captain, shipowner, lover--who fought his way from homeless orphanage to wealth and power. It is the story of his town, Louisville, in the days when thriving river traffic filled it with intense life, and any sort of show, from the glamour of the theatre to the thrill of a steamboat race, drew an eager throng. But chiefly, it is the story of the women who, one way or another, gave color to Gaudy's life. Faint dampstaining, DJ chipped at extremities, in mylar book jacket cover ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 297 pages; 21562 .
