About This Item
London: Thomas Nelson and Sons Ltd, 1928. No dustwrapper, minor bumping to spine ends and corners of blue boards, a tear to the side of the spine, also some fading to same but black titles thereon are still clear, as are those on front board along with picture of a group of girls in lower right-hand corner. Binding splitting at title page and inside back cover, page 255-6 is almost torn out, but otherwise a not too bad copy of this hard-cover story for girls by the author of the "Abbey School" series. This one is NOT one of those, but a story about a girl who inherits a house in Wales. No publication date shown, but original owner's gift message on f/ep is dated 1929. 288pp, colour frontispiece and one other colour plate.. Hard Cover. Fair/No Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
