The Daughters of the Stars
by Crary, Mary; Illustrated By Edmund Dulac
Hardcover. 4to. Published by Hatchard & Co., London, UK. 1939. 190 pgs. Illustrated with 2 color plates. First Edition/First Printing. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and blindstamped titles present to the front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. From the Foreword: "Readers of fairy tales and other romantic fiction will have noticed before this that the Mothers of the heroines are seldom featured. One would imagine that the effort of producing a female child destined to adventure was too much for the average Queen or Princess, since, if she has not already expired before the story opens, she usually manages to pass away before its close. Indeed, the only well-known ladies we can recall at the moment who do not so indulge themselves are Shakespeare's Hermione and Thaisa, who only pretend to be dead druing the years their daughters most need them, and Lady Capulet, who cannot be said to shine as a pattern of maternity. And we know that this state of things so depressed as when we were a small child that we made an early resolve to create a young heroine whose Mother should possess, besides beauty and rank, the additional and stupendous virtue of being alive..." EB; 8vo 8"-9" tall.
