  • AuthorD.W. Higgins

David William Higgins settled in Victoria in 1860 and by the middle of the decade he was owner and editor of the British Colonist newspaper. He also served as an MLA for Esquimalt and served as Speaker of the Legislature from 1890 to 1898. In 1904 his first book, The Mystic Spring and other tales of Western Life, was published by William Briggs in Toronto. The book is 407 pages long and includes eight illustrations, including a photo of the author with facsimile signature. This copy has some light wear to the cover, including a 0.25-inch tear in the cover at the top of spine (see photo). The inside front cover and facing page include the name and address of a former owner. There are a few small smudges on page edges but otherwise it is reasonably clean for its age. The binding is sound.
