Sobre este artículo
First 1909 edition of this H.G. Wells novel about the relationship between a young woman and her father. Set around the suffragette movement and the attempts to storm Parliament in 1908. The book is bound in burgundy cloth with gilt titles to the front and spine, and gilt decoration to the front with the crest saying "Vita Sine Literis Mors Est", a quote from Seneca the Younger meaning "life without literature is death". There is an Ex Libris bookplate inside the front cover with the name F. Ransom - an example of this bookplate is held in the Victoria and Albert Museum, see http://collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O598574/book-plate-unknown/
Also a faded or partly erased inscription that appears to say Major F. B. Short, Roseneath, illegible. The cloth is worn at the edges, as is the spine which is starting to loosen. There is some spotting to the first and last few pages. There is no dust-jacket. Please see photos.

Sinopsis
One Wednesday afternoon in late September, Ann Veronica Stanley came down from London in a state of solemn excitement and quite resolved to have things out with her father that very evening. She had trembled on the verge of such a resolution before, but this time quite definitely she made it. A crisis had been reached, and she was almost glad it had been reached. She made up her mind in the train home that it should be a decisive crisis.
