'The Four-Pools Mystery' is a 1908 novel by Jean Webster. 'Jean Webster' is the pseudonym of Alice Jane Chandler Webster (1876 - 1916), an American writer who authored many well-known books including 'Daddy-Long-Legs' and 'Dear Enemy'. Her most famous works are often characterised by powerful, likeable young female main characters who experience a maturation and intellectual coming-of-age morally and socially. Including witty humour, snappy dialogue, and social commentary, her works are still read and enjoyed by readers today the world over. 'The Four-Pools Mystery' constitutes a must-read for those who have read and enjoyed other books by this author, and it would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
