A fine presentation copy of this scarce Canadian work, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, 'To "Babs" Dahle. This is not a good book but it could have been worse. The heroine is not unlike you except that she had red hair and a heart. On second thoughts it is a very good book. And perhaps in your next reincarnation you may have....red hair! from Bax Jan 14/24'. I think were I to have been Babs, I should have been rather offended.

First edition, first impression, presentation copy inscribed by the author; 8vo; Publisher's brown cloth, rules to upper board and titles to spine in black. A near-fine copy in the dust jacket.
