Description

You are bidding on this nice vintage hard cover book titled Adventures In Literature, Book 8.  It has a copyright date of 1927, and this edition was printed in 1935, edited by Jacob M. Ross, and published by Harcourt, Brace & Company, Inc.  It is in good condition, especially for its age.  It has some wear at the corners and edges, some light scuffs and stains on the cover, and the outer spine is a bit faded, but the binding, although beginning to loosen, is holding well, and all 669 pages including index are intact and in good condition, although yellowed with age, and there is some writing on some of them.  This is a wonderful book of short stories and prose that includes;

  • The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
  • A Midsummer Night’s Dream
  • The Great Carbuncle
  • The Celebrated Jumping Frog
  • After Twenty Years
  • Moti Guj – Mutineer
  • The Red – Headed League
  • The Lady or The Tiger
  • How I Learned To Hunt Seals
  • Boyhood On A Missouri Farm
  • In The Wilderness
  • Louis Pasteur, Hero of Peace
  • The Lure Of The Labrador
  • Theodore Roosevelt
  • Helen Keller
  • The Apple That No One Ate
  • Eulogy of Adams and Jefferson
  • Sir Patrick Spens
  • And more…

This is a very nice vintage literature book, and a great learning tool, as well as a wonderful way to introduce older, school age children to the classic stories…
