A propos de cet article

Two volumes bound as one in three quarter vellum with decorative paper over boards, leather spine label "STANHOPES / GREECE", binding edges and boards worn, spine is smudged but still quite readable. Bookplate of John Cheesment Severn, Esq. who served 2 very short terms as MP, died at the age of 94 in 1875. xvi, 575, xvi, 556, ii. 2nd edition of Stanhope's Greece lacks fold-outs of the first edition of 1824. That said this copy is complete, some foxing to first 3 pages, including the frontis portrait of Lord Byron, otherwise nice and clean. Contains one hand-colored plate "MUSTAPHA ALI", nice and clean with colors bright. Following Stanhope's work is "The Spirit of the Public Journals for the year M.DCCC.XXIII: Being an impartial selection of the most exquisite essays, jeux d'esprit, and tales of humour," includes 6 drawings by Cruikshank. Very slightest foxing on a few pages, nice and clean. All of our books are individually inspected and described. Never ex-library unless explicitly described as such.
