This book is in fair to good condition. There is some edge wear. There is some corner Bumping. The first page is completely loose but not missing; other than that the binding is tight with no loose or missing pages. There is writing inside the front cover -- a name and a note as to where and when the book was purchased. There is also damage to the endpapers where it looks as if the dust jacket was glued on and then removed.

Here is the synopsis of this vintage romance novel:

Jeffery Farnol has of recent years ranged far from the Kent and Sussex of the Regency period which live so bravely in the pages of "The Broad Highway" and "The Amateur Gentleman."

His host of readers will be delighted to know that in this latest novel "A Jade Of Destiny" he has turned to that Merrie England he has made indisputably his own, and has given us a glowing romance of the days of Queen Bess - a romance dealing to some extent with one of the many plots against the life of the great Queen. Two contrasting love stories are woven through this swift-moving, colorful narrative and, as may be expected in a Farnol novel, the drama rises chapter by chapter to the ultimate climax.

Mr. Farnol is of course at his best in a "costume" novel, and in this one are contained to a high degree all the elements of love, adventure and characterization that made him famous.
