This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1st Edition. First English edition ( 'First published in Great Britain 1988' ). I appear to have the Only Robert Hale first English edition for sale anywhere on the Internet. The book is in very nice condition. You can see the covers in the photos. They look perfectly clean. The gilt lettering on the spine is nicely bright. The cover edges and corners are in excellent shape, no rubbing. The page edges are very clean. The book is square and the spine looks straight. The binding is solid from cover to cover. The covers are nicely, tightly bound. The interior of the book is in excellent condition. The pages are exceptionally clean. I'm not finding any instances of soiling. There are no markings. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The dust jacket is in quite decent condition. There are no tears, no conspicuous soiling. The blue coloring on the spine is sun toned, also off the front top edge adjacent to the spine. The flaps are in solid condition, clean, no tears. There is a thin crinkle just below the front flap's top edge. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. I've always had it in a protective cover. I removed the protective cover because it had some minor wear. I will fit the jacket with a new protective cover after the photos are scanned. From the dust jacket: 'A savage and witty delineation of aristocratic hypocrisy from the author of The Three Musketeers, now at last available in English in a superb translation by Dumas scholar A. Craig Bell. The ever-popular Dumas is a writer famous by his historical romances. Fernande, in marked contrast, is an urbane comedy of manners and morals combining both charm and mockery in equal measure.'. N° de réf. du vendeur 005660
