First edition. Publisher's original green cloth with gilt titles to the spine. No dustwrapper. A very good copy, the binding square and firm with some bumping to the extremities and a small stain to the top corner of the upper board. The gilt lettering is bright. The contents, with a previous owner's bookplate to the front pastedown and very occasional spotting, are otherwise clean throughout. The upper edge of the text block shows some minor foxing.
Naomi Royde-Smith was a British writer and the first woman editor of the Westminster Gazette. She authored nearly four dozen works over her career. 'The Unfaithful Wife' is her seventeenth novel.
