About This Item
London, Toronto, Melbourne, Sydney: Cassell & Co, 1927. 1st thus. h/b. Very good, 1st thus, missing d/j, black boards, spine titling (faded), text block firm, pages crisp and unmarked (some slight foxing). 12mo (190 x 130 / 7_"" x 5""). This towering 1875 novel, set in the Scottish fishing village of Cullen, is considered by many to be George MacDonaldÕs fictional masterwork. The intricate tale is more true to place than any of MacDonaldÕs books. As Malcolm is drawn into the web of secrets surrounding majestic Lossie House, with the marquis of Lossie and his tempestuous daughter Florimel at the center of them, we meet some of MacDonaldÕs most memorable characters. Through them Malcolm must unravel many mysteries that hang over the town and its peopleÑand himself!
