This volume contains Upton Sinclair's 1901 novel, "King Midas". It is a
highly absorbing period piece that boasts complex, sympathetic
characters, enthralling plot-situations, and a beautiful lyric style
that fans of Sinclair's work will be familiar with. This book is more
than worthy of a place on any bookshelf, and is not to be missed by the
discerning collector. Upton Beall Sinclair (1878 - 1968) was a famous
American author who wrote almost one hundred books spanning a number of
different genres. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly
scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are
republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern
edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of
the author.
