"In the later part of his long and productive life - he wrote well over a dozen novels, thirty-one dramas, a few volumes of verse, several autobiographical works, eleven books of travel - W. D. Howells was considered one of America's foremost men of letters."--BOOK JACKET.
"Italian Journeys, published in 1867 and written during the four years Howells spent as an American consul in Venice, is more than a lively, knowing, and entertaining book of travel. It is also a shrewd and perceptive inspection of persons and places European. On every page it interrogates European values while between every line it grapples with problems of American identity."--BOOK JACKET.

"The very essence of the American West is to be found in the stories of Zane Grey, whose popularity has not flagged since his first Western was published in 1910. The stories collected here for the first time in book form are a sample of his finest. The nine selections include "The Ranger", first published in 1929 in Ladies' Home Journal, appearing here for the first time as written, "The Camp Robber" and "Monty Price's Nightingale", frontier mysteries, and "Lightning", a classic tale of a wild stallion and the wranglers who want to capture him."--Publisher's description.
