Gilt title is bright, publisher's adverts at front and rear are State B. Text block is tanned with a smattering of smudges.** With The Woman in White, Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) created a new literary genre -- sensational fiction, combining Gothic horror and psychological realism -- which profoundly changed the course of English popular writing. The novel is a deviously plotted story of an affable art tutor, Walter Hartright, who encounters a lost woman, clad in all white, on the streets of London. He reports her to the authorities only to discover that she had escaped from an asylum. Later, Walter is hired as an art teacher for Laura, who looks stunningly similar to the woman in white he met previously. As Laura and Walter fall for one another, the mystery deepens and the story slowly unravels.** The illustrations for the U.S. edition are by John McLenan (1827-1865), a noted caricaturist who illustrated works by Dickens and Collins for Harper's Weekly.** Pasted into the front cover is a clipping of "As the World Wags," a column by Philip Hale (1854-1934) that appeared in The Boston Herald, praising McLenan's illustrations.** First U.S. Edition; state B of the ads (August 1860, Mulock), second binding (woman in black).** "Postage for oversized and international shipping will be calculated by size and weight.

First Edition. [Mystery] FIRST EDITION, also the FIRST ILLUSTRATED EDITION and first single volume edition. In the first issue binding, ads to front dated August 1860, corrected ads. at rear stating 'Miss Mulock' Octavo (24 x 16cm), pp.[4] 260 [8]. Small print over two columns, with in-text engravings by John McLenan. Rebound in brown cloth preserving original blind-stamped covers and gilt title panel on spine, black endpapers. Contents toned as usual, otherwise clean. Recent binding is solid. A nicely presented, useable copy of the first edition. Collins' epistolary novel is considered to be amongst the earliest pieces of mystery fiction, and is certainly a fine piece of 'shocker' writing. You can't go wrong with a sinister warning from a seemingly mad woman encountered in Hampstead, a bit of a mismatched love story, and a shady character who goes by the truly fantastic name of Sir Percival Glyde. The first US edition likely predates the UK edition; the British publisher's circular states that their triple-decker appeared in mid to late August, 1860, while the US publication date was 14th August 1860.…
