A very attractive Victorian imprint of a charming work by novelist, Hesba Stretton. Included is a 3pp original ALS by the authoress. A fine letter by author of one of the best selling devotional narratives of the 19th century, Jessica's First Prayer, a work almost constantly in print since it's first appearance.
Stretton, Hesba [i.e. Sarah Smith, 1832-1911]. The Lost Grip. New York. Dodd, Mead, & Company Publishers. Nd. c.1870's. 245pp.
Very attractive example in decorative cloth. A bit tender at prelims and paper toned as shown.
