Original o primera edición
Hardback. Condición: Fair. No Jacket. Sherard, R. H. Agatha's Quest . New York: The Minerva Publishing Company, 1892. First US edition? Octavo, pp. [1-2] 3-214 [215-224: publisher ads]. Original gray-green decorative boards, front and spine panels stamped in black (with the generic binding design Minerva used for hardcover bind-ups of its paperbacks). Rear cover water-stained, inner hinges partially cracked and discreetly mended, text paper pulpy but not too brittle to read, a decent copy of a fragile book whose spine and front cover, at least, present well enough. #139. $45. The book was originally published in 1890 in the UK by Trischler and Company as a shilling shocker paperback. The present edition may well have been a piracy, but no copies of any American editions (including this) are listed on WorldCat, so it's hard to pin the matter down, except to observe that all editions of the title are now scarce. The present novel is set in the world of journalism and the Paris art world, enlivened by authentic details gained at first hand. The writing style is brisk and competent at the very least. "Sensational and bloodthirsty novel of murder, mystery and detection set largely in Paris and London (Upper Norwood). -- Locke, A Spectrum of Fantasy III, p. 72 (citing the original UK edition).

Octavo, pp. [i-vi] vii [viii] [1] 2-293 [294-296: ads] + 16-page publisher's catalogue dated September 1902 inserted at rear, publisher's bevel-edged red cloth, front panel stamped in white, spine panel stamped in gold, publisher's monogram stamped in blind on rear panel. First edition. "Collection of twelve stories set in Paris involving characters from all walks of life-journalists, actresses, shop owners, minor nobility, politicians, and Nihilists. A few of the stories contain minor criminous elements. In 'The Ghost's Revenge,' Rochenoire, a talented ghost writer, is hired by Girandeau to write LES MYSTERES DE MONTMARTE, a serialized novel that becomes a huge success and makes Girandeau's fortune. Swindled out of his share of the profits from his ghost-writing, Rochenoire gets his revenge on Girandeau by ingeniously incorporating his employer's shoddy behavior into chapters of LES MYSTERES, allusions understood by Madame Baron, a wealth widow who breaks off her engagement with Girandeau as a result. Well-written, but routine commercial Victorian fiction" (Boyd White). Robert Harborough Sherard (1861-1943) "was an English Writer and journalist. He was a friend, and the first biographer, of Oscar Wilde, as well as being Wilde's most prolific biographer in the first half of the twentieth century" (Wikipedia). Penciled signature dated 1919 on the front free endpaper. Mild rubbing to cloth at lower spine ends and corner tips, a very good copy. (#171065).
