Hardcover. Condition: Fair. THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. Content: In his preface to the book, Wicks describes the novel as a "microcosmic view of the social life of to-day. It is founded neither upon an affair of blood, nor upon a breach of the seventh commandment, nor upon an ingeniously contrived puzzle, no…r upon supernatural conditions, involving fanciful conversation with the Dead, but upon the commonplace social conditions of the period.".Condition: Signed copy. The author has dedicated it to its owner by saying it is "from" and then circling his name and dating it. See image. Book also bears an inscription stating it had been owned by the great-great-great nephew of the author. Text block edges are darkened and there is some internal foxing. Front board shows mild shelf wear or staining of some sort. Spine hinges also show shelf wear and the top and bottom of the spine show some bumping. There is a small piercing to where the front board meets the spine, just below the title. The binding is robust but there is some minor separation around page 320 (see image).
