Soft crease to littled darkened spine, ink name at front; page edges tanned; light foxing to endpapers, foxing to catalogue; else a VG clean and unworn copy. Green cloth lettered in black. pp "Michael Trevennack, a public servant of proud Cornish ancestry, suffers from an intermittent belief that he is the Archangel Michael. He is consumed by an insane hatred for Walter Tyrrell, a Cornish landowner, whom he holds responsible for his son's death. Sketchy character-drawing, as usual, but an effective study of periodic insanity and clever use of Miltonic echoes of St Michael. The unusual illustrations are striking and peculiarly appropriate to the theme." - Peter morton. A novel with criminous elements. Hubin II p. 11. ; Octavo
