New York: Grosset & Dunlap Publishers, Date: 1927. First printing. Near fine in a very good plus jacket.. First edition, first state of the second book from the legendary Hardy Boys series, in exceptional condition. Conceived by Edward Statemeyer in 1926 and soon packaged and sold to Grossett and Dunlap, the first three titles in the Hardy Boys series were all published simultaneously the following year. Their success was almost instantaneous. Part of their popularity and endurance can be directly attributed to the original writer behind the house pseudonym "Franklin W. Dixon," ghostwriter Leslie McFarlane, who later wrote: "It was still hack work, no doubt, but did the new series have to be all that hack? There was, after all, the chance to contribute a little style. It seemed to me that the Hardy Boys deserved something better than the slapdash treatment [...] I opted for Quality." That quality helped propel the series, which ultimately accounted for half of all the Syndicate's sales (Johnson 142). HOUSE ON THE CLIFF is further listed on PUBLISHERS WEEKLY's list of all-time best-selling children's books. Brothers Frank and Joe Hardy would become cultural touchstones not only through the numerous installments in the series (almost 200 in total), but numerous reissues, rewrites, movies, specials, television shows (your intrepid Gen-X cataloguer is especially fond of its 1970s incarnation starring Shaun Cassidy), video games, and other spinoffs - so much so that Hardy Boys a ...

[publisher: Grosset & Dunlap] Hardcover DIXON, Franklin W. [212] pp. Grosset & Dunlap Printing coincides w/ last title The Twisted Claw on front flap 1939 7 1/2" x 5 3/8" Illustrated by Walter S. Rogers Endpapers designed by Gretta The House On The Cliff is the second book in the original The Hardy Boys Mystery Stories published by Grosset & Dunlap. The book ranks 72nd on the Publishers Weekly's All-Time Bestselling Children's Book List in the United States with 1,712,433 copies sold as of 2001. This book is one of the "Original 10" Hardy Boys books and is an excellent example of the writing style used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate's writers. This style influenced many other "youth adventure series" books that the Stratemeyer Syndicate also published, including the Nancy Drew series (designed as a corollary to The Hardy Boys written from the perspective of young girls), the Tom Swift adventure series, the Bobbsey Twins and other lesser-known series. All of them used a unique writing style that made them very recognizable as Stratemeyer product. This book was written for the Stratemeyer Syndicate by Leslie McFarlane in 1927.
