Zillah. A romance

HOCKING, Joseph. · 1892 · Ward, Lock & Co. · 2 pictures

Joseph Hocking's romance novel Zillah, issued by Ward, Lock & Co. in London in 1892 for the popular circulating-library readership. Wood-engraved plates illustrate captioned melodramatic moments: a rider carrying a woman at full gallop through woodland, a kneeling plea in a mirrored Victorian parlour, useful for horse-in-motion silhouettes, period interiors, and figures in emphatic gesture.
