The mother of the detective story. A 'bibliomystery' by one of the first American detective fiction authors, Anna Katharine Green, who garnered acclaim & respect for her well considered and legally accurate stories, earning her the title 'the Mother of the Detective Story' by bibliographer & collector Eric Quayle. This is the ninth title to feature her detective Ebenezer Gryce, in this case investigating the murder of a wealthy bibliophile found dead in the circular study which lends itself to the title.

First edition, first printing; 8vo; 7pp. advertisements; publisher's green cloth with swirling pattern containing a key blocked in black and gilt lettering, minor rubbing and bumping to corners but overall very good.
