A Gallic Girl was written by Gyp, the pseudonym of French author Sibylle Aimee Marie Antoinette Gabrielle, Comtesse de Martel de Janville (1849-1932). Sibylle's mother was the Comtesse de Mirabeau (1827-1903), who was also a writer. A Gallic Girl is perhaps the best-known work by Sibylle. A Gallic Girl (1895) was also originally edited by Henri Pene du Bois and published by Brentano's.

Brentano's was founded in 1853 by August Brentano as an independent bookstore in New York City. It eventually opened other locations in the United States and even abroad. Brentano's also became a publisher that specialized in French literature. Over the years, Brentano's changed hands multiple times but its final owner was the Borders Group. Upon the closure of Borders in 2011, all remaining Brentano's bookstores were unfortunately shuttered as well.. Poster. Book Condition: Collectible-Very Good.
