Sobre este item
New York: Grosset & Dunlap. Very Good+ in Very Good- dj. [1928] (c.1926). First Edition Thus. Hardcover. [good sound copy, light wear to extremities, minor dust-soiling to top of text block; the jacket is edgeworn and moderately age-toned , with minor paper losses at spine ends and most corners, and a somewhat larger (1.25" triangular) piece missing at lower left corner of the rear panel]. (8 B&W film stills) Photoplay Edition, issued to coincide with the release of the 1928 Fox Film Corporation film, one of the last silent features directed by John Ford (although both Wikipedia and IMDb have the weird idea that he was "uncredited" on the film, a non-fact so easily disproven as to be laughable). With its Irish setting, it was right in Ford's comfort zone (although biographers and critics have noted its brooding "Murnau-esque" visual style), with Victor McLaglen starring as a wanted IRA man who returns secretly to Ireland with the intention of killing the man he holds responsible for his sister's death (and who was an informer, to boot). It was McLaglen's third film under Ford's direction; he would go on to star or co-star in nine more of the director's works. .
