Hardcover. Zustand: VG. No Jacket. 1st ed. xvi+346; clean tight & unmarked internally. Dark cloth covers clean with no significant wear but slight bottom spine bumping and loss of surface sheen to back plus some faint brown flecking to front endpaper reduce it from VG to VG- rating in my view.

Some wear to the edges and corners of dust jacket with a tear at the top left corner of the front of the dust jacket. Dust jacket is slightly shelfworn and faded.

First Edition. [Anti-Feminism] FIRST EDITION. Octavo (23 x 15cm), pp.xv [1] 86 [2]. Publisher's blue cloth, gilt titles to upper board and spine. Edges untrimmed. Appendix to rear. Interior lightly toned, gentle spotting to endpapers. Small bookplate to front pastedown. Textblock edges toned. Some faint white marking to boards, rubbing to joints and extremities. Very good. A shocking, almost laughable 70-page tirade arguing against women's suffrage. Providing no actual evidence, Wright delivers chapters on women's intellectual inferiority, the 'biological differences' between a woman's brain and a man's, women's insufficient morality - and finally, a discussion of how best to palliate women if the suffragette movement were to fail - namely, by telling them to just get over themselves. A fascinating look at the inanity women had to endure merely to establish themselves as equal human beings.
