Sobre este artículo
London: Hutchinson, 1951. Gold title on black cloth boards which are clean and unmarked with no wear and a small bump to one lower corner tip. Internally there is a little light foxing to endpapers, closed edges and to the first few pages else very clean, tight and unmarked. A Very Good copy for its age. Dustjacket has light wear to edges, a taped repair to the complete edge alongside spine and is price clipped. Set against a background of Yorkshire and Bournemouth, its characters are Drake Marsden, son of a prosperous solicitor in a Yorkshire country town, estate agent to Sir Robert Maudesley, an autocratic but impoverished landowner who treats him badly. Drake's sister Edith and Maudesley's son and heir Sholto are secretly in love, though they both know that Sir Robert expects Sholto to marry wealth and set the estate on its feet again. The story tells of Edith's act of sacrifice and the subsequent coming into her life of Bill Gollantz, and of Drake's love for Flora Willis, who runs a pub. **** NOT EX LIB **** **** NOT BOOK CLUB **** C3D. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Good. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
