Miss High-heels
Item #8998
According to the title page this is "the story of a rich but girlish young gentleman under the control of his pretty step-sister and her aunt: written by himself at his step-sister's order, with an account of his punishments, the dresses he was made to wear, his final subjection and his curious fate." The book, quite uncommon, was subsequently translated into French in an illustrated edition. The author is unknown, but the work has been attributed to "Sir. O.T., Esq." by the French translator, Bernard Valonnes.
A very good copy in 3/4 leather boards, top edge gilt, original blue wrappers and spine preserved. Bookplate with erased signature on front paste down.
