The Troll Garden" by Willa Sibert Cather
Copyright 1905 by McClure, Phillips & Co - Published March, 1905 Hardback - 253 pages Top edge of pages are flush, side and bottom are deckle edges. Listed at value of $450.00 in Book Price Guide - 11th Edition. In excellent condition!! Cloth cover with embossed design, gilt lettering on cover and spine. The hard cover has a crease down the middle, appearing to have been bent. However, the crease does not extend to the inside of the back cover. So it must have been just a slight bend. There is extremely minor wear on the corners of the covers and at the top and bottom of the spine. Minor, really, but I must mention. The pages are clean of any markings. This book looks like new, except for the crease on the back binder board. I am listing this book and a large collection of books by noted authors from the estate of John and Jean Siddall. Many of the books are author inscribed. John Siddall was the editor of "The American Magazine" in the mid to late 20's. A little information about John Siddall and "The American Magazine". In June of 1906, muckraking journalists Ray Stannard Baker, Lincoln Steffens, and Ida M. Tarbell left "McClure's Magazine" to help create "American Magazine". Ray Stannard Baker contributed articles under the pseudynom David Grayson. Under John S. Phillips, who served as editor until 1915, the monthly magazine departed somewhat from the muckraking style and focused on human interest stories, social issues, and fiction. Initially published by his Phillips Publishing Company of Springfield, Ohio, it later was taken over by Crowell Publishing Company then merged to become Crowell-Collier who published it until its closure in 1956. With the changes in 1915, the magazine's editor was John M. Siddall (1915-1923) and it expanded its market considerably by concentrating on female readership. The "American Magazine" ceased publishing in August of 1956.
