Baum's second Oz adventure is available in a faithful reproduction of the rare 1904 first edition. Here is the story of a boy named Tip and his travels through the endlessly fascinating land of Oz. Along the way he meets up with our old friends the Scarecrow and Tin Woodman as well as new friends like Jack Pumpkinhead, H.M. Wogglebug, T.E., and the wooden Sawhorse. Their efforts to thwart the wicked plot of the evil witch Mombi and the revolt of the women of Oz - as led by General Jinjur - make this an exciting and endearing tale. And behind it all lies the mystery of whatever happened to the long-lost Princess Ozma, rightful ruler of all of Oz. The Marvelous Land of Oz was the first of thirty-five Oz books illustrated by John R. Neill and reveals his first visions of Oz. This magnificent edition includes all of Neill's 16 color plates and 118 black-and-white drawings. Let the magical adventures roll! This gripping, side-splitting tale will seal anyone's love for the magical land of Oz!
