Book Details
Orczy, Baroness EmmuskaThe Emperor's Candlesticks
London: C. Arthur Pearson Limited, 1899. Hard Cover. FIRST EDITION. This is the second book (and first novel) by the author of The Scarlet Pimpernel, which first appeared as a play in 1903 and was later released as a novel. This book is a tale of jewels, intrigue, and high Russian society. It is scarce in this condition. The author, Baroness Orczy (1865 - 1947), was born in Hungary and grew up in London. Very good plus in original tan cloth boards with brown title to spine and front board. Minor wear to edges and spine ends. Light rubbing to boards. A few spots of foxing to the interior, else very clean. Bookplate of book collector, Mark Samuels Lasner, is tipped in on the front paste down. 288 pages. LIT/050109. Very Good.
