The front and back covers show a few faded spots but is structurally intact.  There are light signs of age around the edges and corners.  The binding edge is in overall great shape with just some light fraying on the top and bottom ends.  The top, bottom, and side page edges are in great shape.  A previous owner write their name and address to return the book on a blank page inside the cover with a very old price.  Inside the back cover, there's a small stain mirrored on both sides and some cracking along the binding down the middle.  Please see photos or write for more information.


No, that's not a typo!  This book was published in 1891, and it's in great shape for being almost 123 years old!

The Little Minister is a popular sentimental novel by Sir James M. Barrie, published in 1891 and dramatized in 1897.  In 1934, it was made into an American drama film version starring Katharine Hepburn and directed by Richard Wallace, following four silent film versions.

The Little Minister is set in Thrums, a Scottish weaving village based on Barrieā€™s birthplace, and focuses on labor and class issues while telling the story of Gavin Dishart, a staid cleric newly assigned to Thrums' Auld Licht church, and Babbie, a member of the nobility who disguises herself as a gypsy girl in order to interact freely with the local villagers and protect them from her guardian, Lord Rintoul, who wants to keep them under his control. Initially the conservative Dishart is appalled by the feisty girl, but he soon comes to appreciate her inner goodness. Their romantic liaison scandalizes the townspeople, and the minister's position is jeopardized until Babbie's true identity is revealed.
