About this Item
Eight illustrations. The standard biography of Alice French (1850-1934), a New England-born, Iowa-bred spinster who signed her stories and articles "Octave Thanet."

Inscribed by McMichael on the front flyleaf. Original lavender cloth binding, with red titles. Some general minor shelfwear to the dust jacket; otherwise very good. Inscribed by Author.
