Author: MARCHMONT, A.W.
Title: Parson Thring's Secret.
Description: NY, Cassell [1895?]. Octavo grey cloth blocked in red and black. A rather good copy. ¶ First edition? It doesn't seem to have been published in London until 1910. I found a couple of later American printings of this in OCLC, one renamed 'The Marlwych Mystery, or Parson Thring's Secret' but not this, and no British printing until a cheap sixpenny version in 1910. "One of those exasperating novels which could never become a book, if the people concerned in it had the saving grace of common sense." (The Book Buyer).
