Descripción

7 volumes. First Edition. A copy with good provenance coming from the collection of Charles James Fox Bunbury, 8th Baronet. The first diaries of a woman published in England. Illustrated with engraved frontispieces and folding facsimiles from manuscripts. Octavo (185 x 118 mm.), in a near contemporary binding for Willis and Sotheran of full sepia polished calf, the spines with raised bands gilt stopped, the compartments bordered on all sides with gilt fillet rules, two compartments with contrasting red-brown and dark-green lettering labels gilt, the covers with double gilt fillet rules surrounding an inner frame of stippled roll tooling in blind, endleaves and edges marbled. A very good set, the hinges and bindings all sound and strong, the text-blocks crisp and clean with light mellowing, some occasional spotting due to the paper stock, the spine panels with some light mellowing or evidence of age.
