Description

Title: The Dwelling-Place of Light

Description: FIRST EDITION. PRESENTATION COPY.

Publishers blind-stamped decorative green cloth

with gilt title.

Blind-stamped title and vignette to spine.

'Presentation Copy' stamp on title page.

The Dwelling-Place of Light, centers on labor unrest in a

Massachusetts mill town. Strikingly realistic, the novel does

not shy from harsh depictions of the poor working conditions

in the mill, nor of the violent tenor of the workers' anger.

And Churchill's shrewd eye observes domestic matters as well,

with his astute dramatizations of romance and married life.

A very lovely copy.
