Hard Cover. Condizione: Good. First Edition. Hard cover, 8vo, in brown pebbled cloth with titles blocked in gold to front board, laid paper, frontispiece portrait. Condition: Good, with repaired hinges, small patch to ffep. Gently age toned, slightly shaken. *** The book claims to be the memoirs of one Samuel H. Noble, aka "Buckskin Sam," (b. 1838), who in the story is a rural- Maine born lad who walks twenty-five miles to ship out (at the age of 11) as kitchen-hand upon a coasting schooner from Thomaston, traveling to Virginia. There follows a series of tall adventure tales some with a decidedly New England theme: catching a seven-pound lobster with a fishing line, shooting a whale with a rifle, evading murder in a Boston hostelry etc. Later, his adventures take him to New York, Argentina and Liverpool where he is strong-armed into the British navy. There was actually a whole "Buckskin Sam" franchise of dime novels and magazines--see dimestoredotorg--by the Beadle & Co. publishing corporation beginning in the 1870's. The Buckskin Dan character was the invention of author Major Samuel S. Hall, (1838-1886) according to Edmund Pearson's "Dime Novels" p. 107. (who also holds him responsible for such titles as "Double Dan, the Dastard; or The Pirates of Pecos.") Taking this as his inspiration, the Byron, Oxford County, Maine handyman and travelling entertainer Samuel H. Nobel took up the Buckskin Sam torch. (See Byron Historical Society on mainememorydotnet.)** A spanking good read. Scarce. OCLC 5738202. Book.…
