The Yankee Consul: A Musical Comedy is a book written by Henry M. Blossom Jr. and was published in 1903. The book tells the story of a young American man named Teddy, who is sent to a fictional Middle Eastern country called Kharput to serve as the U.S. consul. Once there, he falls in love with a local woman named Zobeide, who is the daughter of the country's prime minister. However, their relationship is threatened by the country's strict social customs and political tensions between Kharput and the United States.The story is told through a series of songs and comedic scenes, with music composed by Gustave Kerker. The musical numbers include I Love You, Kharput, The Yankee Consul, and The Sultan's Harem.The Yankee Consul was a popular musical comedy in its time and was performed on Broadway for over 200 performances. It was also adapted into a silent film in 1916. The book reflects the cultural attitudes and stereotypes of the time, particularly towards the Middle East and its people, and may be viewed as a product of its era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
