Description: WOMAN IN FRANCE DURING THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY Written by Julia Kavanagh. Published by Lea & Blanchard, Philadelphia. First published in 1850, this is the first American edition with 1850 on the title page. A reader’s copy of a rare book. From Wikipedia: Julia Kavanagh (7 January 1824 – 28 October 1877) was an Irish novelist, born at Thurles in Tipperary, Ireland—then part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Her numerous contributions to literature have classified her as one of the non-canonical minor novelist of the Victorian period (1837–1901). Although she is mainly known for the novel and tales she wrote, she also published important non-fiction works that explored the theme of female political, moral and philosophical contributions to society. The appeal of her works is represented by the fact that several of her works have been translated into French, German, Italian and Swedish. Her texts also reached North America, where some of her works appeared in Littell's Living Age, an American magazine. Moreover, she was known to celebrated writers of domestic fiction such as Charles Dickens. DESCRIPTION: 369 pages + 40 page publisher’s catalog in back. 7 1/2 x 5 inches first edition hardcover CONDITION: This hard-cover book is in good condition, but has been put into an old library binding, ca 1920 or so. It has all the flaws typical of a book that has been in a library. I won’t list them all, but you can see everything in the pictures. The interior is otherwise decent and readable with generally clean pages, no underlining, tears or odor. The paper is slightly toned with age. The hinges and binding are excellent with no loose or missing pages. BECAUSE MEDIA RATE SHIPPING IS FREE ON THE BOOKS I SELL, COMBINE THIS WITH OTHER ITEMS FROM MY EBAY STORE.
