A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 – May 6, 1919), better known by his pen name L. Frank Baum, was an American author chiefly known for his children's books, particularly The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. He wrote thirteen novel sequels, nine other fantasy novels, and a host of other works (55 novels in total, plus four "lost works", 83 short stories, over 200 poems, an unknown number of scripts, and many miscellaneous writings), and made numerous attempts to bring his works to the stage and screen. His works anticipated such century-later commonplaces as television, augmented reality, laptop computers (The Master Key), wireless telephones (Tik-Tok of Oz), women in high risk, action-heavy occupations (Mary Louise in the Country), and the ubiquity of advertising on clothing (Aunt Jane's Nieces at Work).

Présentation de l'éditeur

I based this on the Guttenberg text, although I made a few changes to better match the online library digitized versions of the original magazine pages, restoring several paragraphs and one chapter title where two chapters had been merged. Illustrations are mainly from the magazine, with some from other sources and one from the 1905 book, so while the quality of most are extremely good, a few needed to be adjusted due to fading and yellowing pages.
