The Lay of the Last Minstrel, A Poem.

Boston, MA: Etheridge & Bliss, 1807. First American Edition. Hardcover. From the library of noted American poet and author Lewis Turco. Volumes from Turco's library are easy to identify as he had a (bad) habit of both signing the pastedown and embossing the title page. It does, however, make it easy to establish provenance. Overall, a very presentable copy of this wonderful Scott work. Very Good. No DJ as Issued. Light shelf/edge wear, small chip at head, moderate chipping to spine label, light even toning to text block, signed on front pastedown and embossed on titlepage by owner, else tight, bright and unmarred. Full brown leather boards, leather label, gilt lettering and decorative elements. 12mo. 252pp. Item #4788

Price: $65.00
