What Our Customers Say...

Description

Leather Binding

First thus of Junius: Including Letters by the Same Writer Under Other Signatures in full calf bindings. 

Complete in two volumes, by John Wade. 

An insightful collection and analysis of the letters of Junius.

Junius was the pseudonym of a writer from the eighteenth century who contributed letters to the Public Advertiser, intended to inform the public of their constitutional rights and liberties, and to highlight where the government infringed on these rights and liberties. 

John Wade's edit and annotation of these letters was challenging and was later corrected by Charles W. Dilke in 'Athenaeum'.

With a facsimile of a letter as the frontispiece to Volume I. 

Prior owner's ink inscription from 1852 to the first free endpaper of Volume I. 

Condition

In full calf bindings. Externally, very smart. There is some minor rubbing to the spines and to the extremities. There are some light marks to the boards. Prior owner's ink inscription from 1852 to the first free endpaper of Volume I. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are bright and clean with the occasional spot.
