facing page
Book Page signed: "Hervey Allen", 4 pages, 6x8½. Signed on a blank
flyleaf, with printed list of his early books listed on facing page. American
author Hervey Allen (1889-1949) is best known for his 1933 novel, Anthony
Adverse, which was made into a feature film. A veteran of WWI, Allen
began his literary career as a poet while recovering from being gassed in
combat. His best known poem, "The Blindman", was published in "North
American Review" in 1919, but as Allen was becoming a major poet (1920), he
retreated from his fame and almost entirely gave up writing poetry during the
1930s. His other noted works include a series of historical novels,
The Disinherited, about Colonial America, completing three volumes in the
series, The Forest and the Fort (1943), Bedford
Village (1944) and Toward the Morning (1948). Allen also
wrote Israfel (1926), a biography of Edgar Allan Poe. Left edge ragged
from previous binding. Soiled. Otherwise, fine condition.
