Sobre este artículo
Edinburgh and London: William Blackwood and Sons, 1849. Original pink publisher's cloth. Contemporary ownership inscription to half-title, with a small bookseller's label to front paste-down, and a small binder's label to rear paste-down. Third edition of this massive novel, purportedly written in just over two weeks. ". . . I have endeavoured to illustrate the awful liability to error, to which even the highest and best human intellects and institutions are liable, in judging of, and dealing with, especially judicially, the events which happen around us, in the mysterious scene of action in which God has placed mankind - where He has ordained that we should know in part only, and see through a glass darkly." BMC, XXIX, 292 (2nd ed.); NCBEL, III, 970 (1st ed.).
