Sobre este artículo
London / New York: Everyman's Library - J. M. Dent & Sons Ltd. / E. P. Dutton & Co., Inc.. Near Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket. 1973. Hardcover. 0460000756 . A 1973 reprint of a work which first appeared in an Everyman's Library edition in 1906. Sir Walter Scott's first novel was published anonymously in 1814, and his subsequent novels were attributed to "The author of 'Waverley,'" thus becoming the name of the series. Set in Scotland amidst the Jacobite rising of 1745, it prominently features Prince Charles, who attempted to regain the British Throne for the House of Stuart. Includes a preface by James C. Corson, as well as appendix with endnotes and a glossary of archaic terms. Entry 75 in Everyman's Library fiction series. --- In Everyman's Library larger format binding style 5. Full green cloth-look paper-covered boards with titling and "Everyman's Library" gilt-stamped on spine, dolphin-and-anchor device borrowed from Aldine press in gilt at tail of spine. In red dust jacket with Bruce Grove drawing of a pair of clansmen dressed in tartans to front panel. --- An about-Near Fine copy: bright, tightly-bound and unmarked, though with prior owner's rubberstamping to front free endpaper. Unclipped, unpriced jacket is in great shape, though with very slight chafing to edges, else intact, bright and wrapped in removable archival mylar protector. ; 12mo - 7 to 7-1/2 in. tall; xv, 496 pages .
