Arabella is one of Georgette Heyer’s most popular Regencies, and has been reissued over one hundred times in various countries and languages. This is the first edition cover. It is gorgeous. See the delicate curve of our heroine’s waist, the drape of her morning gown, the rakish tilt of her bonnet. It certainly sets the scene for what is to come. A+
