From the collection of Berkeley book collector and letter press printer, John Ruyle. Listed as #180 in "American Lost-Race Fiction: The Stuart Teitler Collection," a catalog produced in 2008 by Serendipity Books of Berkeley, California.Regarding this very copy, the Serendipity catalog states, "Not a lost-race novel, per se, and certainly not in Teitler, but a companion to Bowman's lost-race novels that Teitler does identify, and from the Collection of John Ruyle. The first American edition was 1859; reprinted in 1865; 1866, etc. Nice copy. The nature of the design of the bicycle on the spine would suggest a date in the 1880s." Good. Part of "Miss Bowman's Books for Juveniles" series.
