The Story of an African Farm
Boston, Roberts Brothers, 1893. Apparently the first thus: "The Author's Edition," with an 1893 date on the title page and ads in the back dated Spring 1893. The author's first novel, originally published pseudonymously (without her real name being listed, as it is in this edition). Considered by many to be a precursor to Isak Dinesen's Out of Africa. Owner name front flyleaf; spine cocked; modest handling to boards; about near fine, without dust jacket, probably as issued. [#020492] SOLD
