First American edition. Very good in fair jacket. Two inch chip to jacket front and spine obscuring author name and text, large stain to jacket front. 1931 Hard Cover. We have more books available by this author! 362 pp. Maid in Waiting is the first novel in the third and final volume of the Forsyte Saga Chronicles, the seventh of the nine novels. Following the quite climatic ending to the previous volume, we put the Forsytes to one side and concentrate instead on the Cherrell family, cousins of the Mont’s; the family Fleur Forsyte married into. Fleur and her husband Michael having now been married for about eight years, remain just peripheral characters in this novel. KEYWORDS: JOHN GALSWORTHY MAID IN WAITING BRITISH LITERATURE FORSYTE
