About This Item
London: Constable, 1947. First edition. By the famous collector and bibliographer of Victorian literature and author of FANNY BY GASLIGHT. A story of Victorian London, "of mordid [sic] horrible slums, through whose vices rich men made fortunes. A story of dissolute wretches, of men--and women--on the make, of naive leaders. . .of prostitutes, panderers and their associates. . . . Sadleir can write--but it is not pleasant reading." (Kirkus Review, 1946). Near fine in dust jacket with slight toning to spine which shows one small stain, otherwise near fine.
