[Charles Agvent]

ROBERTS,  Kenneth.  WHY EUROPE LEAVES  HOME.  n.p.:  Bobbs-Merrill
(1922).  First  Edition.  Illustrated  with  photographs.  First  book
solely  authored  by  Roberts  following  the  1907  publication  of a
songbook  co-authored by him. Subtitled "A true account of the reasons
which   cause  Central  Europeans   to  overrun  America..."   Roberts
discusses  reasons  for  emigration among  other  topics,  including a
chapter  on  the  beer drinkers of England. Very Good or  better  copy
lacking the scarce dustwrapper.                                $250.00
