THOMSON, Hugh The School for Scandal

Hodder & Stoughton, 1911.

First Hugh Thomson edition. 4to. Lilac cloth elaborately decorated and lettered in gilt. Pictorial endpapers. Twenty five tipped in colour illustrations and many line drawings in the text. A very good copy indeed, bright and crisp with some spotting to the endpapers.

A social satire first performed at Drury Lane Theatre in 1877. A comic play with an intricate plot exposing the lives and loves of fashionable London society. Sir Peter Teazle's simple country bride becomes leader of a group of scandalmongers who tear their friends' reputations to shreds.
