Sobre este artículo
London: George Bell, 1849. No marks or inscriptions. No creasing to covers or to spine. Very clean very tight pages with minimal tanning. Full leather boards with fine embossing and some surface rubbing, slightly darkened towards the fore edge. Intact gilt lettering to spine with raised bands and embossed repeating motif. All page edges gilt with spectacularly beautiful intricate design to the gilt. Attached silk bookmark ribbon. 152pp. These essays on morals and philosophy described as inherent and desirable in the English Gentleman were written by the author for his two younger brothers and subsequently published in early editions of the Theologian. The work is described as an 1849 re-print and is probably the closest in existence to the real first edition. Extremely scarce.. Leather. Very Good (+)/No Jacket. 6.5 x 4.25 inches.

Sobre Godley Books
We have been selling mainly non-fiction books for over 20 years and now have a very varied stock of around 10,000 books. As not all are yet online, please ask us for your search items as we may have the book you are seeking waiting to be catalogued. Our delivery company Royal Mail has twice increased overseas prices during 2020, in particular to the USA, so our shipping rates have been amended to reflect this.
