Collection of British Authors Tauchnitz Edition, Volumes 2638 & 2639. The first Tauchnitz edition of this title. Two small octavo volumes (16 x 11 cm), uniformly bound in quarter brown cloth and marbled paper boards, with gilt-stamped title on spines, and all edges marbled: 286,[2], 270,[2] pp. Contemporary ink ownership on ffep. of each volume (one is dated 'February 14, 1891 - Berlin') and a faint pencil note ('Those people are French are they not?') on the half-title in volume 1. Two leaves in volume 1 (117 & 8) have a closed tear at top edge that touches the running title, but without loss. One leaf in volume 2 (66) has a short closed tear at the fore-edge.
