Produktbeschreibung

NEW PRINT WITH PROFESSIONAL TYPE-SET IN CONTRAST TO SCANNED PRINTS OFFERED BY OTHERS Chums In Dixie: Or The Strange Cruise Of A Motorboat This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Autorenporträt

Bashford was the Post Office's Chief Medical Officer from 1933 to 1943, and then the Treasury Medical Adviser from 1943 to 1945. He served as King George VI's Honorary Physician from 1941 to 1944 and was the late Honorary President of the Post Office Ambulance Centre and the St. John Ambulance Association. On June 9, 1938, he was appointed knight-bachelor of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, as proclaimed in the King's birthday honors. Rathborne was born in Covington, Kentucky, to Gorges Lowther Rathborne and Margaret H. Robertson Rathborne. He attended Woodward High School in Cincinnati, which is the oldest public high school in the United States. He married Jessie Fremont Conn in 1879 and they had four children. Rathborne spent most of his adult life in northern New Jersey. Over the course of four decades, Rathborne worked for a variety of dime novel publishers, but he was most closely identified with Street & Smith, where he spent 20 years as a novelist and editor. After 1910, he wrote virtually entirely in the juvenile series book type. He frequently published under pseudonyms, and these works made up the majority of his literary output. His pseudonyms are many and poorly documented, with several still unidentified. He most likely utilized at least 30 distinct pen names during his career as a dime writer, and more than 20 more during his years of authoring series books. Poor documentation of his pseudonyms makes it impossible to attribute his works at times, and the full scope of his published publications may never be discovered.
