Love By Accident.

The dust jacket is age-toned, and has some very minor chipping to top and bottom of spine. Internally, the book has virtually no foxing. A very good copy. 288 pages. 190 x 130 mm (7½ x 5 inches).
Louis Marlow was the pseudonym for Louis Umfreville Wilkinson, a British author, lecturer and biographer.
At the time, The Observer's reviewer thought this story, turning on the protagonist's self-imposed celibacy, was an inadequate vehicle for the book's more serious injunctions against warmongers and literary censorship.
