Description: “I am on-ly a ma-chine,” said Tiktok. “I cannot be kind an-y more than I can be sor-ry or glad. I can on-ly do what I am wound up to do.” "Baum was a true educator, and those who read his Oz books are often made what they were not: imaginative, tolerant, alert to wonders, life." --Gore Vidal. Here we offer the 2011 "heirloom quality" reproduction of the 1907 first edition of L. Frank Baum's classic, Ozma of Oz, the third book of Baum's Oz series, one of the few actually written by Baum prior to his death.

Neill, the iconic Oz illustrator. The book comes with publisher's collector notes and a laminated map of the lands of Oz. In mint condition. 270 pages; measures approximately 9.5 x 7.25-inches.
