Sobre este artículo
New York, London, Glasglow and Manchester: George Routledge & Sons, 1890. . This is a Very Good (Plus) copy of an undated edition (the First Edition was issued in 1877 by Lippincott.). Routledge has conveniently provided a list of MacDonald's works they publish, and the latest one shewn is "What's Mine is Mine" from 1886. Quercus therefore rather arbitrarily assigns this a publication date of 1890 and believes it to be an early American reprint (or possibly the First Edition Thus).It is an uncommon addition, with no holdings shown in WorldCat or Copac. Highly decorative Victorian binding; green cloth with the stampings filled with black, red, and gilt. The rear cover reproduces MacDonald's signature. Clean text; vii. 386 pages, with the ads a page in the front. Internally, there are some problems with the endpapers: both front and back FFEPs have wrinkles and the second FFEP has been torn in half. But the binding is beautiful, with only mild rubbing along the margins. There is a faint congregational stamp on the front paste-down. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Reprint.. Decorative Cloth. Very Good Plus/No Jacket.
