"Copyright, 1927, by Frederick A. Stokes Company."
"'The Good Woman' is the last of a series of four novels dealing from various angles with a strongly marked phase of American life. The book was planned, without being in any sense a sequel, as part of a picture which includes three other sections.--'The green bay tree,' 'Possession,' and 'Early autumn.' Taken together the four might be considered as a single novel with the all-encompassing title 'Escape.'"--Foreword.
Red pebbled cloth boards with gold stamped lettering on front cover and spine.
