What Our Customers Say...

Description

Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding

The History of Tom Jones is among the earliest English works to be deemed a novel. Extensively vast, this eighteen book novel takes the form of a bildungsroman and follows Tom Jones as he comes of age, exploring human nature.

Henry Fielding was an English novel of irony, humour and satire and one of the founders of the traditional English novel. 

This volume is richly illustrated by G. Spencer Pryce and is a first of this edition. 

With nineteen plates and a frontispiece. 
Collated, complete.

Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, very smart with some marks to the boards and fading to the spine. Internally, firmly bound with bright and clean pages.

Very Good
