The Woman In White (Royal Collector's Edition) (Case Laminate Hardcover With Jacket)

Walter Hartright, a young art teacher, encounters and gives directions to a mysterious and distressed woman dressed entirely in white, lost in London; he is later informed by policemen that she has escaped from an asylum. Soon after, Hartright must employ various sleuthing techniques to solve an unparalleled mystery. The Woman in White is Wilkie Collins's fifth published novel, written in 1859. The theme of the story is focused on the unequal position of married women in law at the time. It is considered to be among the first mystery novels and is widely regarded as one of the first (and finest) in the genre of "sensation novels." In 2003, The Observer listed The Woman in White number 23 in "the top 100 greatest novels of all time." This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket. 9781774766187 1774766183 0 BOOK http://books.google.com/books/content?id=F9t5zwEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api http://books.google.com/books/content?id=F9t5zwEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&source=gbs_api en 9781774766187
