To throw light on the motives & movements of a conspicuous literary figure of the last generation, two friends of Harris's from Chicago, Dr. Tobin, his 'authorized' biographer, & Mr. Gertz, an attorney who was Harris's agent in the latter years of his life have undertaken to sift the truth about Harris & to present a portrait of him that will reconcile the most shocking incongruities of his character with some of the fine performances of his pen. "Messrs. Tobin & Gertz have done a very good life of him. With great skill, they disentangle the facts from the cobwebs of fancy that he spun. They tell his story simply, clearly & honestly."--AMERICAN MERCURY. Illus.
Now largely out of print and inacces­sible, and overshadowed since his death in 1931 by the Frank Harris legend and by his reputation as the author of the notorious My Life and Loves, the stories nevertheless bear witness to the com­bination of diverse qualities that has dis­tinguished Harris's work at its best. This extraordinary collection is designed to serve today's readers as an introduction to the work of the controversial, gifted, and flamboyant writer. To the stories themselves, Mr. Gertz, Harris's first biographer and lifelong student of his work, has added a Preface and an After­word on the writer, his life, and his in­fluence.
