The Lies and Libels of Frank Harris is a literary work authored by Gerrit Smith. The book is a critical analysis of the works of Frank Harris, a controversial journalist and editor in the late 19th and early 20th century. Smith examines Harris's literary works, including his memoirs, essays, and biographies, and exposes the inaccuracies, exaggerations, and outright lies that Harris propagated in his writing. The book also delves into Harris's personal life, including his relationships with women and his political views. Smith argues that Harris's writings were often motivated by a desire for fame and attention, rather than a commitment to truth and accuracy. The Lies and Libels of Frank Harris is a thought-provoking and insightful critique of one of the most controversial figures in literary history.1929. Arguments by Kate Stephens and Edited by Gerrit and Mary Caldwell Smith. An attempt to rebuke and refute parts of Harris's scandalous and pornographic multi volume autobiography, My Life and Loves in which he characterized Byron Caldwell Smith unfavorably, according to the latter's relatives. Frank Harris published voluminously and was associated closely with George Bernard Shaw and Oscar Wilde. His four volume autobiography raised issues of obscenity, pornography, and lewdness and was self-published from the South of France, with the intent of escaping American law and Puritanism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
