Description

One of the most mysterious of authors, B. Traven spent his early life in Germany as an actor and anarchist publisher using the name of Ret Marut, then emerged in Mexico as B. Traven, a literary champion of the proletariat. This work examines his career through the production of his 16 books (twelve novels, two novellas, a work of nonfiction, and a collection of short stories), to the production of the movie The Treasures of the Sierra Madre, where he emerged this time as Hal Croves. The bibliography, with 140 illustrations and 1200 entries, provides information on the publication of over a thousand editions of Traven's books. For the first time, information on the states and issues of many editions, including first editions published in Germany between 1926 and 1960, is provided. Includes an illustrated descriptive bibliography of all of the American and British first editions. An essential tool for collectors, book dealers, and librarians. Review ...Treverton's work is highly recommended for all literature collections and those focusing on popular culture and film. The unravelling of the Traven mystery is a fascinating one...--Reference Reviews ...provides comprehensive details of more than 1,200 Traven items...succinctly reviews the current state of biographical knowledge and conjecture...The stories in this collection served as the basis for most of the later English-language collections...a major accomplishment...essential to booksellers, collectors, and scholars alike.--AB Bookman's Weekly ...surely the most mysterious of literary figures in the 20th century.--Bookdealer About the Author Edward Treverton is an antiquarian bookseller, based in Asheville, North Carolina. He has been collecting B. Traven books for twenty years.
