Description
Hardback. 253pp. Novel based on the author’s successful play Masks and Faces in which the real life Irish actress Peg Woffington (1720-1760) was a major character and which was in turn made into a number of films including the 1935 Peg of Old Drury staring Anna Neagle. No date but the bibliography details Reade’s death in 1884.
