Harbor of Lost Ships; Garafelia's Husband; Scales and the Sword; The Four-Flushers: Harvard Plays Second Series is a collection of four plays written by George P. Baker. The first play, Harbor of Lost Ships, is a drama that explores the themes of love, betrayal, and redemption. The second play, Garafelia's Husband, is a comedy that tells the story of a man who is forced to marry a woman he does not love. The third play, Scales and the Sword, is a historical drama set in ancient Rome and follows the story of a man who must choose between his loyalty to the emperor and his conscience. The final play, The Four-Flushers, is a comedy that satirizes the world of high society and the lengths people will go to maintain their social status. Overall, this collection of plays showcases Baker's skill in writing a variety of genres and exploring complex themes.1919. From the Introduction: The Harvard Dramatic Club before the War brought a pause of two years in its activities, had for some ten years produced annually as part of its activity three or four one-act plays. The four new selections from its repertory of one-act pieces included in this volume can hardly require any special introduction, for the history of the Harvard Dramatic Club was given in the prefatory matter to the volume of one-act plays of this Club published in 1918, and the reception by the public of the four plays therein contained shows that they were welcome to readers and amateur acting organizations. The plays here printed have not been chosen as the only remaining four sufficiently worthy, for there are others any editor would be glad to see published in a volume like this, but as a group which perhaps gives the volume best variety and balance. The editor's hope is that they may please their public as well as did the first group of Harvard Dramatic Club plays. Contains: The Harbor of Lost Ships, by Louise Whitefield Bray; Garafelia's Husband, by Esther Willard Bates; The Scales and the Sword, by Farnham Bishop; and The Four-Flushers, by Cleves Kinkead.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
