Franklin Walker cites this as one of fifteen plots London bought from Sinclair Lewis, presumably on March 11, 1910, along with "When the World Was Young" (entry 132) and what later became the unfinished novel The Assassination Bureau, Ltd., entry 41. Walker says it shows Lewis' preoccupation with flying, a subject which held little interest for London. Lewis' first book, which appeared the year after this story was published, was a juvenile titled Hike and the Aeroplane. See Franklin Walker, "Jack London's Use of Sinclair Lewis Plots, Together With a Printing of Three of the Plots," Huntington Library Quarterly, 17 (November 1953), pp. 59-74. London received $200 for the story on November 29, 1910. "When the World Was Young" — The Saturday Evening Post, v. 183 (September 10, 2023), 16-17, 45-49. [NB]
See entry 131. Lewis had titled this plot "The Garden Terror." London received $660.90 for this story on August 1, 1910. |
