By Anonymous

x, 329, [4 (ads)] pp. Complete. 8vo. 7¾ x 5 inches (20 cm).
Second Edition, stated.
 
Hardcover. Original publisher's pictorial blue cloth over boards, with covers printed in white and red. Front and bottom fore edges untrimmed. Folded map of the Isle of Axholme present as frontispiece. Publisher's introduction printed in red.
 
Boards show some rubbing, edgewear and light spotting/soiling. Lettering on spine and front cover rubbed. Some insect damage to the gutter of spine at bottom of rear cover.

An excellent reading copy of this unusual book.
 

[Baker: "History in English Fiction", No. 1627]

Isle of Axholme in the Fens, when the Dutch, under Vermuyden, were engaged in draining the country, and had collisions with the inhabitants. Romance of the Weyman brand with plenty of local colour. Hero loves a Dutch girl and his rival is president of the Council of the North. The curious title commemorates the fact that the MS. of the book was received by the publisher in a mysterious manner; the book was published anonymously, although by that time the author's name had been disclosed.
