Scarlet and Hyssop
E.F. Benson
Heinemann, London · 1902
First Edition. First edition of this very scarce, early Benson novel, the 4th of 18 to appear over the Heinemann imprint between 1899 and 1913. Publisher's ochre cloth lettered in black and decorated in red, black and white. 316pp text + 32p undated ads, all edges trimmed.
Very minor rubbing at tail of spine and slight spine sunning but a very clean, sound copy with neat original ownership inscription dated March 1902.
Written by Dr Jeremy Parrott, who has the book in his hands. Nothing here is generated from a catalogue record.
