Condition: New [many books online are books that have been read, but the seller still defines as New. This book belonged to a book collector; it was purchased from the publisher and kept in a temperature-controlled book cabinet. It was never read. It's new, crisp, in gift-giving condition]. This was the last novel by Ellen Glasgow, a Southern writer. She had been writing best-sellers since 1904, and her realistic examination of Southern life and culture were widely praised. Her story of a decadent Southern family is marked by realism, feminism and a concern for human beings.
