Sobre este artículo
London: Chapman and Hall, 1858. Book. Good. Hardcover. 2nd Edition. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Royal blue limp cloth, illus. and lettered in gilt, decorated in blind. Stated 2nd ed. Covers spotted and soiled with vintage dampstaining, only modest actual wear. Some soiling to endpapers, interior mostly clean. Former owner's signature in pencil on front flyleaf, otherwise unmarked. Authorship appears to be variously attributed to H. C. Bunbury or Augustus Frederick Blyth; realizing that we are rather off our areas of expertise, we leave that matter unresolved..

Sobre Saucony Book Shop
The Saucony Book Shop, located in the heart of scenic rural Berks County, epicenter of Pennsylvania German folk culture (our shop specialty), offers a full range of gently used, rare, and antiquarian books, with many volumes of scholarly merit and an unabashed emphasis on the quaint, the curious, and the utterly obscure. We make no attempt to be a general-service book shop. Our inventory is highly selective, individually chosen from among the hundreds of thousands of books to which we have access annually at auctions, library and estate sales, and through individual scouts and vendors. We do not handle material that does not meet our expectations in terms of condition or interest to our specialized, idiosyncratic customers. Despite maintaining a browsing inventory of more than 15,000 volumes, we have minimized our carbon footprint by maintaining our entire operation in a cozy ca. 1890 barn and lean-to adjacent to an historic creamery in rural Maxatawny Township. Our shop is available for browsing by appointment and occasionally, in temperate weather, by chance, so email or call ahead to peruse the eclectic selection gracing our shelves, or ask our ferociously over-read staff for recommendations. Selling antiquarian books of merit since 1981. Full search and appraisal services; always keenly interested in purchasing quality used books, whether by the piece or by the bushel. Thanks for reading about us! Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.
