Add to basketHardback. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. First Edition. Everett, Edith Townsend. A Duel With Destiny. Philadelphia: Drexel Biddle, Publisher, 1898. First edition. Octavo, pp. [1-10] 11-162 [163-166: publisher ads][note: flyleaf at front]. Original green decorative cloth, front panel stamped in gold, black and white, spine panel in…gold and black, top edge gilt. Illustrated with a B&W halftone at the frontis. Early pencil gift inscription on front free endpaper. A couple of tiny spots on back cover, else a fine copy. Uncommon. #877. $45. Wright III, 1779. Collects nine short stories previously published in The Philadelphia Times. The title story, set in Monte Carlo, concerns the vagaries of luck at roulette. In "A Very Curious Story" a Southerner is returning home from a work assignment in Mendoza, where he had a romantic fling with a native woman, now cast aside by him so he can marry a young woman back home. The scorned lover follows him home and, turning herself into a cobra, kills her rival and then slips away. "Morley's Valentine" is one of the century's many imitations of "A Christmas Carol." Most of the stories could be described as sentimental tragedies. This is the only title by her recorded in Wright or Smith.
