Dust jacket is worn but the book underneath is great! Published in 1951, 'The Scandalous Mrs. Blackford' is a historical novel that tells the story of an American woman's controversial affair with the Grand Duke Nicholas of Russia. The book was written by Harnett T. Kane, a well-known American author and journalist who specialized in historical fiction and non-fiction about the American South, with contributions from Victor Leclerc. This novel appeals to collectors of mid-20th century historical fiction and those interested in romantic narratives set against historical backdrops. Book collectors who focus on American literature from this period value such works for their cultural insights and period-specific cover art that exemplifies the publishing aesthetics of the early 1950s.
