[Hayward (William Stephens)] Revelations of a Lady Detective. Never Before Printed, first edition, light foxing or staining to title, neat contemporary and large modern ink ownership inscriptions to front free endpaper, cracking to gutter, contents shaken with a few gatherings proud, original pictorial boards, early calf reback, obscuring one letter of title, chipping to head of spine, some wear to extremities, touching first word of title, rubbed, 12mo, George Vickers, 1864.⁂ An important title in the evolution of the detective novel, not least for being one of the first to feature a female detective, the inimitable Mrs Paschal, depicted on the cover wearing the crinoline from which she at one point extricates herself in pursuit of a mysterious masked man. The book is one of two 'yellowbacks', or 'railway books', published around the same time, the other being The Lady Detective, generally attributed to Andrew Forrester. The truth as to which one actually came first is somewhat muddled, with Revelations of a Lady Detective announced as being ready for release one day before the first known reference to Forrester's book, but listed under a different publisher, J.A. Berger, subsequently absorbed into George Vickers, which may have delayed release slightly.'The increased interest in gender over the last fifty years and, more recently, popular culture has enlarged the audience for these two remarkable examples of nineteenth-century crime fiction. Rarity has also hindered scholarly consideration of these casebooks. Yellowbacks were cheaply produced and seldom archived; extant copies of The Female Detective and Revelations of a Lady Detective are rare and in fragile condition, available only in the special collections of a few research libraries.' (Bredesen, On the Trail of the First Professional Female Detectives in British Fiction, 2010).Rare, Library Hub lists copies at the BL and Cambridge only.
