A lovely copy of the first edition of Lucille Iremonger's classic critique of the 1901 Versailles 'time slip' adventure. This is the true first edition, first printing. Pages are excellent: no markings or inscriptions, just some normal minor age wear mostly on top edges. One fox spot on fore edge but no tanning or browning elsewhere. Very unusual in this condition. DJ is v very nice: unclipped, some shelf wear and minor nickings and the odd small enclosed tear. Some age wear. But generally very good indeed. A great collector's item. Many illustrations. See photos all of which are of the copy for sale, we don't use stock photos
