What Our Customers Say...

Description

Early Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce

The second edition of this very scarce work, which was first published the month prior.

An Edwardian novel of adventure, identity and romance in which the protagonist survives a devastating earthquake and assumes the identity of a presumed-dead criminal acquaintance, using this new persona to navigate danger and opportunity.

Author Richard Marsh is best known for his supernatural novel 'The Beetle', which was published the same year as Bram Stoker's Dracula, and outsold Stoker's title six times over.

With a publisher's catalogue to the rear dated July 1912.

Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, excellent, with minor marks to front board near joint. Spotting to text block fore edge. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright and generally clean, with only the odd spot.

Very Good Indeed
