    Description

    Early Edition, Leather Binding

    In full calf.

    With an introductory section on the life of the author by Dr. Johnson.

    With memoirs of the author and observations on his genius and writings by Dr. J. Langhorne. William Collins was an important poet of the middle decades of the 18th century, second in influence only to Thomas Gray. His lyrical odes mark a turn away from the Augustan poetry of Alexander Pope's generation and towards the Romantic era which would soon follow.

    Condition

    In full calf. Externally, very smart with minor rubbing to joints and extremities. The odd mark to the boards. Internally, firmly bound. Pages age toned and spotting, heavier to the first and last few.

    Very Good Indeed
