Marjorie's Probation. Chapters from a Life Story
A short Victorian moral tale of a girl's upbringing by I. S. Ranking, issued in London in 1883 by J. F. Shaw and Co., a religious publisher of improving fiction for young readers. The plates are wood-engraved domestic interiors with captioned narrative moments, women in bustled dress kneeling by armchairs, alongside a shield-shaped device in white line on a dotted black ground showing a figure with a staff, a lamb and scrolling foliage.
