RHODES, HARRISON GARFIELD.[[2]] High life: and other stories. *$2 (3c) McBride
20–17527
High life, the first and longest story, is an amusing skit picturing life in a colony of exiled royalty in Switzerland. The other stories are: The little miracle at Tlemcar; Fair daughter of a fairer mother; The importance of being Mrs Cooper; The sad case of Quag; Springtime; Vive l’Amerique! They have been copyrighted by the Curtis publishing company, Collier’s, the Ridgway company, the Metropolitan and Harper’s.
“It is all told with much grace, cleverness and conversation, realism, and with a Daudetesque humor. Mr Rhodes is a cosmopolitan, and he understands the art of the short story; only in two or three passages is his manner of writing open to any censure.” N. H. D.
