About This Item
Boston: Roberts Brothers, 1884. First American edition.. Brown decorative cloth designed in black and gilt. Published anonymously as a volume in the NO NAME SERIES. Frontispiece of a 4-leaf clover, perhaps indicating that the author is Irish. Old dampstain to lower front cover, a little shelf wear to edges, small bookplate on front end paper, but in general quite a nice, bright copy. O'meara was the author of: Narka, the Nihilist (1887). She claimed to be related to Barry OMara, Napoleons physician.
