First Edition. 238pp. + ads. The origins of "Madge Buford" are obscure. Peter Mendes (Clandestine Erotic Fiction in English 1800-1930, Aldershot: Scolar Press, 1993, entry no. 77) makes reference to an edition published at 'New Orleans' in 1892, citing an entry in the manuscript library catalogue of Nicholas Brown. A clandestine reprint was published at New York about 1931, while in 1968, Brandon House in California openly published the book in a compendium volume called Of Vice and Virtue, along with "Gus Tolman." The latter title, ascribed to William B. Le Fleure, was published at Paris in 1932 in a limited edition. (Description courtesy of Pat Kearney).

207 + 144pp. A pre-Victorian erotic novel, complete and unexpurgated. The history of this work is complicated. Henry Spencer Ashbee notes an edition in two small volumes of 105 and 85 pages respectively, which he says "appeared about 1840, but is not the original, which was, I believe, entitled Evalina." He then notes two later editions, dated c. 1843 and c. 1860, the first published by Anthony Dyer and the latter by the notorious William Dugdale. (See: Ashbee, Catena Librorum Tacendorum, pp. 142-4.) In 1904 there appeared at Paris from the erotica publisher Charles Carrington a novel called The Modern Eveline in three volumes. According to the Preface, this is a sort of expanded adaptation of the earlier work, created by one of the publisher's hacks from his memory of the original which he read many years earlier. It seems probable that it is from this 1904 edition that the Brandon edition was reprinted. Description courtesy of Pat Kearney. 3027 / 3030. Paperback. Light shelfwear. Very good.
