Early one-volume edition of the hugely popular novel of suspense, "the story of what a Woman's patience can endure, and what a Man's resolution can achieve," best remembered for the flamboyant villain Count Fosco, a brilliant, obese figure crawling with pet mice. A very good copy of a Victorian classic, handsomely bound by Birdsall.
