Description

First Edition, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, Scarce

First edition. Scarce work. An anthology of writings on friendship, from early customs and Paganism, through the place of friendship in Greek life and thought, to the Renaissance and modern times. Edited by Edward Carpenter, an English utopian socialist, philosopher, poet, and activist for gay rights and prison reform. Includes a letter from the previous owner dated 1988.

Condition

In the original beige cloth binding. Externally, smart with light bumping to the extremities and the odd mark to the board. Fading to the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright and clean with the odd spot and age toning to the endpapers.

Very Good
