Descripción:
London: Printed for M. J. Godwin and Co., 1821. [4], viii, [1], 10-180pp. With an engraved frontispiece. Later calf-backed marbled paper boards, contrasting red morocco lettering-piece. A trifle rubbed. Offsetting to title page, scattered spotting. William St. Clair's copy, with his characteristic pencilled ownership inscription to recto of FFEP. An early piece of juvenilia principally by Mary Lamb (with contributions by her brother Charles) centred upon the newly arrived pupils during their first evening in attendance of Mrs. Leicester's school for girls, during which they together relate the circumstances of their upbringings and difficulties had with their immediate families. The stories are at least partially autobiographical, reflecting Mary's troubled childhood and history of mental instability. First printed in 1809, the book proved remarkably popular, reaching 11 editions by 1836. William St. Clair (1937-2021), British scholar and senior civil servant, notable as the author of The…

Descripción:
George Town: Joseph Milligan, 1811. This collaboration by the troubled siblings Charles (1775-1834) and Mary (1764-1847) Lamb, was first published in 1809, two years after their most famous book, "Tales from Shakespeare." Appeariong anaonymously, it is a series of stories aboutten girl students. This is a Very Good (minus) copy of the First American Edition (stated). Very scarce; Quercus finds only one institutional holding, at Cambridge; none listed with WorldCat. Full leather binding of smooth calf; seven gilt rules on the spine; red label with title. Clean text; 165 pages. Some floodmarks, mainly affecting the endpapers; spotting throughout, although text remains clear and readable. Corners are bumped but the binding remains firm and suffers none of the cracking so often seen in books of this age. There is a contemporary (1823) ink signature on the rear endpaper, as well as one in pencil in another hand. . First American Edition.. Full-Leather. Very Good/No Jacket. 16mo - over…
