About This Item
Hardcover edition, published by Grosset & Dunlap, 1938. No dust jacket. Dated as 1938, however, from 1938 to 1950 Loring's novels were published by Little, Brown, so this is a reprint edition from when her work was published by Grosset, starting in 1960. The story of Constance Trent, a young woman born in England, but entrusted with an American family since her abandonment by her Mother and death of her Father. Now a solicitor appears to bring her back to England to return the long lost granddaughter as heir of Major General Lord Valdemere Trent Gowen of Trent Towers. Bright green cloth covered boards, with the author name and title imprinted on the spine and within a stylized red border on the front board. Boards are flat, and the corners are not bumped. Minor dots of edge wear to the boards. There is a hand written date on the top corner of the first flyleaf - '1965', but no further writing besides that. Edges of the text block show age appropriate age tanning, typical for these editions considering the type of paper stock used. No former ownership marks, not a library discard. Binding is tight and square. The attached photo is of the copy we have in our inventory.
