A true 1906 first printing of Owen Wister's notable departure from Western fiction, Lady Baltimore. Set in the fictionalized town of Kings Port (Charleston, South Carolina), this novel serves as a brilliant social satire contrasting old Southern aristocratic traditions with the rising "Gilded Age" wealth of New York high society. Beautifully illustrated with partial and full-page plates by Vernon Howe Bailey and Lester Ralph. Published April 1906. Ex-Library copy: No annotations, nor highlighted text, however it does have a number sticker in the spine, some library stamps & a card pouch. The book is in good condition, showing some wear in the spine Hinges are sturdy and the binding is tight. Interior is clean. All illustrated plates are fully present.
