Captains Courageous.
Kipling, Rudyard.
The Century Co., ( 1897), New York
19 cm. viii, (2),323 pp. b/w frontispiece and plates
Price: $150
First American edition of Kipling’s classic tale of a young man’s coming of age in Gloucester’s commercial fisheries. A great yarn, and if you can sit through the movie without shedding a tear when Spencer Tracy (Academy Award for best actor as Manuel) goes down, you’re made of sterner stuff than I. Light wear to spine ends, else very good condition in publisher’s decorated cloth.
