This book contains Harold Bell Wright¿s 1910 short story ¿The Uncrowned King¿. It is a beautiful allegory about life, religion, and how we perceive it all. This fantastic volume would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf, and constitutes a must-read for fans of Wright¿s work. Contents include: ¿The Pilgrim and his Pilgrimage¿, ¿The Voice of the Waves¿, ¿The Voice of the Evening Wind¿, ¿The Voice of the Night¿, and ¿The Voice of the New Day¿. Harold Bell Wright (1872¿1944) was an American author, widely considered to have been the first American to sell more than a million copies of a book - and the first to make over a million dollars from writing fiction. Many antiquarian texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Autorenporträt
American writer Harold Bell Wright (1872-1944) is well recognised for his widely read books from the early 20th century. Wright was born in Rome, New York, on May 4, 1872, and was raised in a creative and devout household. After gaining an interest in ministry while attending Ohio's Hiram College, he went on to study at Boston University Theological School. Wright served as a pastor in a number of places, but he decided to focus on writing because of health problems. After "The Shepherd of the Hills," his breakout book, was released in 1907 and became an enormous hit, he became a well-known and successful writer. The Ozark Mountains served as the setting for this book, which centred on themes of atonement, forgiveness, and the consequences of previous deeds. Throughout his life, Wright's novels were widely read, and he became very well-known. But occasionally, his paintings were criticised for being too emotional. In spite of this, he had a big influence on American literature in the early 20th century.
