About the Item

Lost Ecstasy by Mary Roberts Rinehart. George H. Doran Company, New York, 1927. 1st Ed hardcover. "Kay Dowling was used to luxury, expensive pleasures, and the gentlemen who could afford them. But when she accompanied her wealthy family to her late grandfather's ranch, it was ordinary Tom McNair who caught her eye. Then Tom was arrested for a not-so-ordinary murder, and Kay's life was turned upside-down. But she was determined to help Tom prove his innocence, even if she had to put her own life in danger to do it. She later leaves him and moves back east. In 1931 the book was made into a movie named "Take This Woman." A romance film directed by Marion Gering and starring Gary Cooper and Carole Lombard. The film was released by Paramount Pictures. NPT Books, a division of N. P. Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
