Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. This is a two-volume copy of St. Ronan's Well, by the great Scottish novelist Sir Walter Scott (1770-1832). It is the 18th of his Waverley novels which, for nearly a century, were the most-read novels in Europe. Saint Ronan's Well was published in 1824. It is set in a fashionable spa in the Scottish Borders and is the only Scott novel with a 19th-century setting. The story concerns the rivalry of two men: Valentine Bulmer, the Earl of Etherington, and his half-brother Francis Tyrrel. Both wish to marry Miss Clara Mowbray, who is the sister of John, the laird of Saint Ronan's. These books are part of an incomplete set I have, which is also listed here. Between 1892 and 1894, the Boston publisher Estes and Lauriat published the collected Waverley novels. The introductions of each were written by the Scottish poet and critic Andrew Lang (1844-1912). In 48 volumes, they published a leather set, a marbled-cover set and a plain set. I have volumes of the plain set. By 'plain', I mean attractive navy blue boards with ivory title plates on the spine. The publisher has stated 'Large Paper'; the paper is thick and of best quality. There were 1000 copies of this set printed. This is set #679. That is stamped on each book in red. There is red type on the title page and on the tissue paper fronting each illustration. Each book has six black and white illustrations. The illustrations in these two books are covered with tissue paper. The illustrations are stated as original etchings and/or etching from paintings, by William Henry Boucher (English, 1837-1906), Sir George Reid (Scottish, 1841-1913), Sir David Young Cameron (Scottish, 1865-1945), Amédée Forestier (French, 1854-1930), Robert Walker Macbeth (Scottish, 1848-1910), William Brassey Hole (Scottish, 1846-1917), Gaston Albert Manchon (French, 1855-1951), G. Rodriguez (unknown), Alfred Boilot (French), William Wright-Nooth (English). In both cases, the title panels are faded and scratched. Both volumes have clearly never been opened. They have some scuffing on the back cover and a small fade mark on the front. Both books have fully-intact gold trim; only the tops of the pages were originally trimmed. In the case of both books, the interiors are perfect. No foxing. see list (illustrateur).…

It is the 24th of his Waverley novels which, for nearly a century, were the most-read novels in Europe. Anne of Geierstein, or The Maiden of the Mist, was published in 1829.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - During the mid to late 1840s, dramatic riots shook the communities of Woodstock, Fredericton, and Saint John. Irish-Catholic immigrants fought Protestant Orangemen, with fists, club, and firearms. The violence resulted in death and destruction unprecedented in the British North American colonies. This book is the first serious historical treatment of the bloody riots and the tangled events that led to them. Scott See shows mid-century New Brunswick roughly awakened from the slumbering provincialism of its post-Loyalist phase by the stirrings of capitalism and by the tidal wave of Irish immigration that followed the potato famine. His main focus is the Loyal Orange Order, the anti-Catholic organization that clashed with the immigrants, many of them impoverished exiles. See presents an extraordinary profile of the Orange Order and concludes provocatively that it was a nativist organization similar to the xenophobic groups active at the time in the United States. Unlike other recent works on the Order, his book emphasizes the importance of the organization's specifically North American concerns, and questions the significance of its connections to Old World sectarianism.…
