Description: Plots and Counterplots: More Unknown Thrillers of Louisa May Alcott Author: ALCOTT, Louisa May Title: Plots and Counterplots: More Unknown Thrillers of Louisa May Alcott Publication: New York: William Morrow & Company, 1976 Description: Hardcover. Edited by Madeleine Stern. Small 4to. Green cloth spine with gilt lettering and black paper over boards, pictorial dust jacket. 315pp, (4pp). Fine/fine.
