Sobre este artículo
London: William Fearman, 1820. Octavo. In three volumes. 226, 290 and 319pp. This spurious work was in the style imitating Sir Walter Scott was issued in the form of a triple-decker (the term was not used until the 1830's) was announced by its publisher William Fearman as early as mid-October 1819, but it was not actually published until the third week of December, just a few days before Ivanhoe. A letter from John Ballantyne denouncing the Fearman work as spurious. Constable quickly followed this with advertisements to the same effect, and he also brought forward the announcement of Ivanhoe, by "The Author of Waverley," as forthcoming in November. Constable's publishers probably inspired the attack calling the work "paltry and vile artifices" deployed by Fearman and his ilk "to palm rubbish upon the world under the colours of genius, to injure good writers, and to fill the pockets of pretenders and rascals". From the library of George Vincent Mullan, American Judge, Justice State Supreme Court member Tax Board, New York City, 1914-1915, Court House Board, 1915-1916. Bound in original paper covered boards, paper spine labels, one label chipped, some paper loss on spines of two volumes.
