About This Item
New York: D. Appleton and Company, 1897. Reprint. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 1897 printing. Spine and edges lightly toned, pencil note to front endpaper. 281 pp. Light blue cloth, silver March hares with blue accents on front board and spine, gilt titles. A novel by the American journalist who supported Grover Cleveland's run for president. He later moved to London to serve as a foreign correspondent for The New York Times, and in that capacity wrote a study of Russian anti-Semitism entitled The New Exodus. The Damnation of Theron Ware, his most popular novel, was called 'a minor classic of realism' by critic Jonathan Yardley. "This 1896 romance was termed 'an exquisite London idyll' by Willa Cather. Set in London, the characters of March Hares are in no way tied to reality; besides their need for food, their demeanor and actions come across as insane and disembodied.
