Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Early murder mystery
A young man, Richard Shackford – alienated from his wealthy family – seeks employment at a New England marble quarry. By hard work he makes his way up to become almost deputy to the owner whose daughter Margaret he has also fallen in love with. But when Shackford's wealthy cousin Lemuel Shackford is found murdered, and at the crime scene is the cousin's will naming Shackford as heir to the fortune, he is immediately the prime suspect. More clues emerge to implicate him further. With an overzealous detective out to prove him guilty, it's up to Richard to unravel the mystery and exonerate himself.
This has also been put forward as a contender for the first published murder mystery novel in English.

Notă biografică

Thomas Bailey Aldrich was an American author, poet, critic, and editor who lived from November 11, 1836, to March 19, 1907. His long tenure as editor of The Atlantic Monthly, during which time he published authors like Charles W. Chesnutt, is noteworthy. The Story of a Bad Boy, a semi-autobiographical novel by him that popularized the "bad boy's book" subgenre in nineteenth-century American literature, and his poetry were other works for which he was renowned. The English language is too sacred a thing to be damaged and vulgarized, he remarked in a letter from 1900, citing modern poet James Whitcomb Riley. He started working in his uncle's New York office when he was 16 years old and soon started contributing regularly to newspapers and periodicals. Early in the 1860s, Aldrich became friends with a number of notable young poets, painters, and intellectuals in the metropolitan bohemia, including Edmund Clarence Stedman, Richard Henry Stoddard, Fitz Hugh Ludlow, Bayard Taylor, and Walt Whitman. Aldrich worked for the Home Journal, which was later edited by Nathaniel Parker Willis, from 1856 until 1859. He was the editor of the New York Illustrated News during the Civil War. Aldrich has two boys after marrying Lilian Woodman of New York in 1865.
