Description

Complete in two volumes, Lady Morgan's remarkable and entertaining memoirs, steered to publication after her death by W Hepworth Dixon. Engraved frontispieces to both volumes, these and title pages rather foxed, but thereafter all is generally clean and bright, if lightly toned. Bookplates of Royal Holloway College to front pastedowns, the first inscribed 'Presented by Miss Sloane, 1898'. Bar a number written in pencil to title verso, no internal indication of library/institutional use. Green boards a little bumped and lightly worn (moreso to rear of v.2), but still smart, with bright gilt tilting to spine. Small round paper label to each spine. 8vo. i. viii, 532pp; ii.559pp
