Description

Ever plagued by financial problems, McClure transferred the popular-edition rights to Doubleday, Page and Company in 1906. This Doubleday reprint has a utilitarian peach-colored dust jacket; the same cover image is stamped on green cloth. McClure left book publishing three years later, selling the business and his books rights to Doubleday.
