Crying for the Light, Vol. 1 [of 3], by J. Ewing Ritchie 36808 [Subtitle: or Fifty Years Ago] [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/3/6/8/0/36808 ] [Files: 36808-0.txt; 36808-h.htm] For those wishing to know: a long novel, partly autobiographical, but mainly a combinations of things James Ewing Ritchie felt strongly about, and lecturers on throughout the book. Despite good reviews, the novel doesn't hold together, but nevertheless is useful for Mr. Ritchie's moralizing. All the best, David, England, sunny but still warm and heavy, storms due

Copyright issue Re: Posted (#27824, Campbell) !
by John Mark Ockerbloom 21 Jul '11

This book appears to still be under US copyright, due to GATT restoration. As you know, the US in 1996 restored copyrights to certain works that would have been copyrighted if they had followed all the requisite formalities (such as renewal and registration), even if (as with this work), there was no renewal filed. (This is a post-1922 work, so it would still be copyrighted in the US if all required formalities were followed.) The requirements for restoration were: 1. author was citizen or resident of a non-US country that has copyright relations with the US 2. the work was still copyrighted in that country 3. the work was first published abroad more than 30 days before its first US publication. 1. Alice Campbell was born in the US, but by World War I (before she published this book) she had moved abroad to Europe (initially France, later England), as documented in http://mysteryfile.com/blog/?p=9779 . 2. She was still alive in 1926 (before _Juggernaut_ came out), so her work would still be copyrighted in both France and England in 1996, which had life+70 years copyright terms by then. 3. The first US publication of _Juggernaut_ appears to be 1928, according to WorldCat. (Gutenberg's source text is dated 1929, but earlier US editions were published in 1928.) However, the work was previously published in serial form in the British magazine _Pall Mall_ as early as November 1927. See, for instance, this copyright registration page http://books.google.com/books?id=Aq4hAQAAIAAJ&lpg=PA19&ots=PEGZEv5vjt&dq=ju… in which chapters 11-16 are stated to have appeared in the December 1927 issue of Pall Mall, published November 6. (I haven't looked directly at that range of Pall Mall, but from a look at earlier issues, this magazine appears to have been published only in Britain; I didn't see any signs of editions or subscription solicitations for the US.) For the time being, I'm not listing this work on The Online Books Page. I would suggest reviewing its status for Gutenberg as well. I have not yet found information on the author's death date, so I can't say at this point whether it would be suitable to put on Gutenberg Canada or Australia, but it doesn't appear to qualify for Gutenberg US.
