Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Historical novel which is "a drama-packed, worldly story of the simple Americans who founded a Western empire". Callahan was a Native American Indian expert, being part (a small part) Native American himself and an avid collector of Indian artifacts. This novel is illustrated with 18 very good full page drawings, but the artist goes uncredited (could it be the author?). The front endpaper carries a bold inscription by the author which, apart from the words "INDIAN WAY" is basically illegible. He has signed it and drawn a small doodle of Indian tepees and mountains. A very good copy indeed, with some scratches to the cloth on the rear board, and slightly browned edges. The dust jacket is very good, rubbed and a little worn on edges and folds. The inside of the jacket has some red offset staining and is printed with some promotional information on the book, reproductions of some of the illustrations (still no artist mentioned), and a list of other titles from the publisher. It seems to be publicity aimed at booksellers, so was this a copy that was signed by Callahan and sent out to dealers? I dunno. Inscribed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condizione: Fair. 3rd printing. (no dust jacket) [worn but intact copy, slight fading to spine cloth, bumping to all corners, fraying to cloth and some exposure of boards at bottom edge, several small gouges in rear cover, small bookseller's rubber stamp inside, one-time owner's name at top of title page]. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author on the title page: "To Marie Vasgard / with good luck wishes / Robert E. Callahan / 1947." As nearly as I can make out the plot of this somewhat overwrought novel, it has to do with a man who places hundreds of "lonely hearts" advertisements in newspapers around the country, in order to investigate and expose the matrimonial bureaus (matchmaking rackets sometimes referred to in the book as "love cults") that take advantage of lonely women looking for mates. He has undertaken this project to fulfill the wish of his now-deceased wife, and through it he also apparently hopes to achieve some sort of spiritual enlightenment. The chapter contents are laid out like those of popular fiction of an earlier era, e.g.: "Chapter 22: His Mind Goes Back -- Deep Sympathy -- Joins New Cult -- More Letters -- Another Racket." (The book is set in Los Angeles, and in one chapter our protagonist visits a "movie school" and describes its fraudulent machinations.) Basis for the 1946 movie of the same name, which starred Kay Francis, Paul Cavanagh, Robert Shayne, and Veda Ann Borg.
