Sobre este artículo
London: Seeley and Co, 1890. First edition. Cloth. Very Good. 8" by 5.5". Not Stated. A scarce first edition of Emma Marshall's best selling Victorian novel. A scarce first edition copy of Emma Marshall's best selling novel. The Victorian writer typically weaved stories around historic characters or famous buildings, and in this first edition, Marshall constructs a narrative around the seventeenth century poet and rector of Salisbury Cathedral, George Herbert. With a blind stamp to the front endpaper from Bristol based booksellers 'W. F. Mack'. Prior owner's pencil inscription to the front endpaper, reads 'Stella Hawkins'. With four pages of publisher's adverts to the rear. Recased in the publisher's original maroon cloth binding. Externally, generally smart. Rubbed to the boards and the spine, with some marks to the rear board. A little bumped to the head and tail of the spine with a few closed tears to each. The front hinge is starting, but firm. Internally, generally firmly bound. Aside from the odd spot to the front and rear of the volume, pages are bright and clean. Very Good
