A rare Baum book. The title is an anagram for Macatawa, the resort on Lake Michigan where Baum wrote many of his books and which serves as the setting for this satire. Baum himself makes a brief appearance as Mr. Wright. The book may have been published by Baum himself, and it was certainly available only at Macatawa and among the small community there. Ownership signature of Henry P. Merrifield of Pierson, Michigan on front pastedown endpaper. Bienvenue & Schmidt p.295.
