About This Item
London: Longman & Green, Original green, pictorial wrappers rebound in a contemporary 3/4, dark blue morocco binding with raised spine decorated and lettered in gilt. Marbled endpapers; t.e.g.. A lovely copy with very light wear and age toning. The sequel to "The New Arabian Nights" this book contains a series of remarkable stories in which the protagonists encounter several characters who may or may not be conspirators in a bombing plot on behalf of Irish independence. The characters weave intriguing and troubling tales of their histories. The chapters stand alone as adventures, but the whole is tied together nicely in the end. Stevenson manages to tell tales of murderous Mormons, crazed Voodoo practitioners, and wayward Bohemian princes, among others.. First Edition. 3/4 Morocco Over Wraps. Excellent. Small 8vo..
