Various Authors: James Payn, John Berwick Harwood Chambers's Journal for 1864. Contains Lost Sir Massingberd & Married Beneath Him (Payn), Lord Lynn's Wife (Harwood)
London & Edinburgh W. & R. Chambers 1864 First Edition Hard Cover
Contains: Lost Sir Massingberd by James PAYN. Complete serialisation. Married Beneath Him by James PAYN. Complete serialisation. Lord Lynn's Wife by John Berwick HARWOOD. Complete serialisation. Tenants at Will -- anonymous story issued as the Double Christmas Number and bound in at the end of the volume. Numerous other short stories and novellas, all anonymous. Mid C19th black leather over blue-grey marbled boards, lettered in gilt; green endpapers. Boards grazed. Light rubbing on corners, otherwise very good. Lost Sir Massingberd was Payn's most successful serial -- it reputedly raised the circulation of Chambers's substantially. John Berwick Harwood is a very mysterious figure. Sadleir notes "This novelist is, to me, one of the minor mysteries of mid-nineteenth century authorship...until finding him in the Bentley catalogue I had never heard his name nor, until this catalogue [XIX Century Fiction] was in proof, had seen a book of his in a second hand shop". Harwood's novels -- melodramatic and wildly sensational -- are still extremely scarce. Wolff speculates (based on a note on the author's handwriting) that Harwood may have been a pseudonym for an unknown female writer. His (or her) best known work is the novella Horror A True Tale, which is occasionally anthologised. A heavy volume which will require additional postage.
