The Beautiful Wretch

Complete and unabridged, with 55 full-page plates by Thomas Gainsborough, William McTaggart and Walter Sickert. Three short novels by the Scottish writer who made a living describing the Highlands to Londoners - a wilful young beauty on her travels, a young man brought up on Marcus Aurelius, and four fisher-lads of the west coast making their way. This edition includes a gallery of 55 plates of painting bound with the book, with works by Walter Sickert, Stanhope Forbes and Spencer Gore.
