About the author

Thomas Sterling North was an American author of books for children and adults, including 1963's bestselling Rascal. Surviving a near-paralyzing struggle with polio in his teens, he grew to young adulthood in the quiet southern Wisconsin village of Edgerton, which North transformed into the "Brailsford Junction" setting of several of his books.

Amusing. I doubt that many of these are very good (what else can you expect from a miscellany of authors). Hemingway’s Death in the Afternoon is really the only one that’s survived. The artwork in this would certainly not pass our PC standards and is probably at least partially the reason it’s not been republished.
