Hardcover. Condición: Fine. No. 165 of 200 copies. Signed by Mayes, Bales, and Westgard. Bright gilt cloth with black titles, 245 pp., as new. A reprint of the original 1928 edition, with additions."Up until 1961, this completely ficticious account of Alger's life was the only biography of Alger ever written. The book recounts a… version of Alger's life based on a diary and letters that never existed. For nearly forty years, this biography was accepted as definitive and accurate, and even today it is still mistakenly cited as a reliable source in most reference texts. In the author's own words, this version of Alger's life, 'literally swarms with countless absurdities.'" - The Horatio Alger Society, online.
