At the beginning of the First World War, "American artist Rockwell Kent is an overaged, erotically feckless Huck Finn ready to leave the superficial art world of New and light out for the territory. Only he heads the wrong way: north and east to Brigus, Newfoundland." Signed on title page. A couple of bottom page tips gently bent. Lightly edgeworn dust jacket. Jacket in protective mylar sleeve. A nice copy, unread.
