Ajouter au panierHardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : No Jacket, As Issued. Later Edition. Five volumes in publisher's original decorative paper covered boards, gilt crest front covers and gilt lettering back, dark blue end papers, four engraved portraits each volume, except Vol. II, with three. Bookplate of Mary Rivers with added…name in ink of R.G. Russell. A Very Good set, small tears at spine ends, moderate toning associated with frontis engravings. Wraxall's Memoirs was a scandalous success on its initial publication in 1815. The first edition sold out in a month, and a libel suit cost Wraxall a jail term and a fine. Even so, the facts appear to have been mostly true, and the book makes for fine reading to this day. *** A heavy set that will require additional shipping charges for priority and international mail. Please inquire as to cost before ordering.
