The Best-Selling American Novel of 1899

Back again we go with another in the American Best-Seller series! As ever, this is following the Publisher's Weekly list, which goes back as far as 1895 (check out previous videos in the playlist if you haven't already). Today's video is on the novel David Harum, a book which I'd never heard of but apparently endured in popularity for a good many years after its first publishing (and continued the tradition of best-sellers entitled with the names of main characters, three out of five so far!). With good reason, I must say! Come along with me and discover your next favorite classic!

You can find this book on Ebay, Amazon, Thriftbooks, and Walmart. A free version has been posted online at Project Gutenberg.
The movie versions are available on DVD through Ebay, Walmart, Amazon, JOITO's, Oldies.com, and WarehousesOverstock.
