Item description from seller

Library stamps/marks/labels/pocket residue, tone, otherwise light wear. Solid hardcover.; Five act play, in verse. Historical drama of Edgar, King of England. Not in Wright, American Literature. Author's first and only book, a re-telling of the legend of Athelwold, Elfrida and King Edgar. "The next time we see an effort to make dramatic use of the story is in a little tragedy published by the Lippincotts . by an unknown writer, Mr Dyson Rishell, who has never put in an appearance since, to our knowledge, but his Elfrida was, as I indistinctly recall it, a valuable acquition to the literature of the day, far ahead in point of construction to Richard John Glover's effusion; but it was born too early and died to soon for recognition." - Eugene Fellner; "Amelie Rives's New Tragedy", Boston Evening Transcript, February 20, 1892, page 6. An obscure but not undistinguished 19th century American play. ; Ex-Library; 146 pages.
