CANFIELD, DOROTHY Her Son's Wife
Grosset & Dunlap, 1927. 8th Printing. Hard Cover. Good/Acceptable. Light foxing on page ridges, ink names & date on front free endpaper, light staining on dust jacket, a 3" and three 1" dust jacket tears. "Mary Bascomb's innate refinement and her passion for perfection suffer a rude shock when one day, without warning, her idolized, fatherless son brings home as his wife a cheap, ignorant and vulgar girl. With fine courage and resolution she sets about to adjust herself to an impossible situation. Her effort to bring the best out of what might have been a tragedy makes this fascinating story. There is something strong and splendid and permanent about Mary Bascomb, and if you are tired of sex and sensationalism this story will bring you back to the way real people act and feel.".
