Obviously never read. 1966 First Edition. Mrs. Margaret Oliphant (1828-1897) wrote some 125 books, including biographies, literary history, criticism, travel books and at least 95 novels. She also contributed prodigiously to the magazines of her time. This is an account of her life and work. It includes a checklist of her 1st editions in book form that adds to and corrects Coghill. Sadleir's 19TH CENTURY FICTION identifies only 62 of her novels. The "equivocal virtue" of the title is Mrs. Oliphant's rueful description of her compulsion to write indefatigably. List of chapter notes. Bibliography. Index. Bound in the original blue cloth, stamped in shiny gold. Complete with dust jacket. First Edition. Hardcover. New/New. 8vo. xiv, 281pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.
