A seafaring murder mystery of RL Stevenson and his nephew Lloyd Osbourne with a vein of financial satire running through it. Dorothy Shakespear’s copy, her initials signed to the ffep and a later note to the effect in pencil to fpd. Undated, but predating her marriage to EP in 1914. Wrecked: cloth largely broken along spine joints, loss from head of spine. Internally all good. A character on the shelf.
