Sobre este artículo
New-York: George P. Putnam, 1849. Original Cloth. Very Good. 5 1/2 x 7 3/4 inches. xvi + [17]-382 + 1 unnumbered and 24 numbered pages of adverts dated 1849. Self-contained Vol. 11 of The Works of Washington Irving. Foxed and toned. From the library of Samuel Hart with small library number (56) on front pastedown. Bound in publisher's green cloth with blindstamped design to covers and spine and gilt title and publisher to spine. Light wear to covers. From the library of Samuel Hart, which experienced a fire that damaged a number of books. As a result, items from Hart's library are extremely rare. Samuel Hart (1845-1917) was dean of the Berkeley Divinity School, the (un)official "middle way" seminary of the Episcopal Church at Middletown, Connecticut. In 1886, he became the third custodian of the Standard Book of Common Prayer. In 1892, he became secretary of the House of Bishops. In 1898, he became the fourth historiographer of the Episcopal Church. He served in all three of these offices until his death. (In 1893, he was elected Bishop of Vermont, but he declined the office.) A nice association copy.
