A Fine first edition in original decorated cloth, little offsetting to endpapers. In the rare, Near Fine dust-jacket, only lightly chipped, mainly along top edge. An exceptional representative of an early dust-jacket with a rare title.

A DASHING novel, full of "go" and incident, with the outcome of the love-story trembling on the brink of uncertainty until the end. The story hangs on the relations between a successful young author and his gifted wife. The situations - mostly in New York - are dextrously handled, the dialogue is smart an crisp, and the whole eminently readable throughout. - from the dust-jacket; 12mo; [vi], 277, [1] pages.
