Description

James Oppenheim's novel The Nine-Tenths, dated 1911 and dedicated to the memory of his father, is present here only in title page, dedication, and contents, so the story does not appear. The contents divide the novel into two parts, The Dream and The Test, each with its own numbered chapters.

Part I opens in The Printery, then turns to The East Eighty-First Street Fire and The Good People. Myra and Joe, Marty Briggs, and Last of Joe Blaine and His Men follow. Part II promises beginnings, a chapter sharing the book's title, forty-five treacherous men, a fight in good earnest, an arrest, and The Trial, with a character named Rhona entering late.
