Descrizione

First edition thus, Heritage Club reissue of the edition produced originally for the Limited Edition Club in small number and essentially identical to it in format. The Heritage Club prospectus is laid in. Illustrated throughout with beautiful engravings by R.J. Holden printed in light sea green and with map endpapers. Tall 8vo, in the original white paper-covered boards fully decorated with an all-over three- colour pictorial rendition of one of Mr. Holden’s engravings, backed in white buckram lettered in black, in the original publisher’s slipcase. xiv, 216. Internally a pristine copy, the decorated boards also pristine, any evidence of age is very minimal indeed.

Edizione: first trade issue of an absolutely beautiful production of thoreau’s work. it is nearly identical to the issue printed at the historic anthoensen press in portland, maine. it is one of our favorite productions of the limited editions/heritage clubs. every aspect of the book; the type, the engravings, the binding, are examples of just what they were capable of doing. a american classic beautifully presented
