Merrilie Dawes.
Charles Scribner's Sons, 1913. First edition. Hardcover. First edition, very good red cloth hardcover (no dust jacket) shows light bumping to corners, previous owner name at front end paper, touch of soil at page edges, couple of very light internal splits just beginning at center of text, and bottom corner of page 202 torn away. 382 pages with color frontispiece and plates by Arthur Becher. Still an attractive copy of this work from the author best known for his western and railroad fiction (Wikipedia) about "..a charming young heiress who combines with courage and almost masculine persistence, a distinctly feminine attractiveness.....and is the narrative of a common enough incident-a man falling out of love with his fiancee because he has fallen in love with an eminently more suitable woman." (Boston Evening Transcript 1913). Very Good. Item #18395
