About This Item
London : Hodder & Stoughton, (1937). First edition. "The only fictitious character in this book is a minor one" - the story of Elizabeth Patterson, "the beautiful girl from Baltimore who married Jerome Bonaparte, the youngest brother of Napoleon ... an epic of a clever, brilliant yet glittering cold woman ... Susan Ertz is penetrating in her characterisation and has a rare fund of narrative power. A book worth reading" (Leicester Chronicle, 23rd October 1937). Post 8vo (21cm). 527,[i]pp. Original pale blue cloth, lettered in green and black; lightly rubbed; spine lightly sunned and with a few spots; mild spotting of edges and prelims, but a good and sound copy in the dust-jacket - the jacket a little worn and chipped, but an uncommon survival.
