1911. Canadian clergyman turned writer, Basil King (author of The
Inner Shrine) produced his first noteworthy novel at the age of 50.
He believed in spiritualism and claimed that a spirit personality
guided his writing. The Street Called Straight, his best-selling
dramatic story of present day American life begins: As a matter of
fact, Davenant was under no illusions concerning the quality of the
welcome his hostess was according him, though he found a certain
pleasure in being once more in her company. It was not a keen
pleasure, but neither was it an embarrassing one; it was exactly
what he supposed it would be in case they ever meet again-a
blending on his part of curiosity, admiration, and reminiscent
suffering out of which time and experience had taken the sting. See

1907. Vance, American screenwriter, short story writer and
novelist, begins The Brass Bowl: In the dull hot dusk of a summer's
day a green touring-car, swinging out of the East Drive, pulled up
smartly, trembling, at the edge of the Fifty-ninth Street
car-tracks, then more sedately, under the dispassionate but
watchful eye of a mounted member of the Traffic Squad, lurched
across the Plaza and merged itself in the press of vehicles
southbound on the Avenue. Its tonneau held four young men, all more
or less disguised in dust, dusters and goggles; forward, by the
side of the grimy and anxious-eyed mechanic, sat a fifth, in all
visible respects the counterpart of his companions. Beneath his
mask, and by this I do not mean his goggles, but the mask of modern
manner, which the worldly wear, he was, and is, different. See

1905. By the author of The Garden of Allah. The book begins: On a
dreary afternoon of November, when London was closely wrapped in a
yellow fog, Hermione Lester was sitting by the fire in her house in
Eaton Place reading a bundle of letters, which she had just taken
out of her writing-table drawer. She was expecting a visit from the
writer of the letters, Emile Artois, who had wired to her on the
previous day that he was coming over from Paris by the night train
and boat.
This book is a facsimile reprint and may contain imperfections such
as marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages.
