No owner's name or bookplate. No remainder mark. Fiction. From the Dust Jacket: "In the fall of 1900, Dr. Gustav Uyterhoeven left the chess garden that he and his wife, Sonja, had created together in Dayton, Ohio, and journeyed to South Africa to serve as a doctor in the British concentration camps of the Boer War.

Lewis, Brooks Hansen offers a tale of spiritual progress disguised in the most exotic visions of the imagination...
