What Our Customers Say...

Description

Leather Binding

Attractive half calf examples of two non-fiction works from American essayist, lecturer, philosopher, minister, abolitionist, and poet Ralph Waldo Emerson.

The first of these two works is the 1883 'popular edition' of 'Representative Men' and 'Nature, Addresses and Lectures', with bound volumes bound together in a single volume. With a general title page to the start of the work, divisional half titles, and individual pagination.

The second work is an 1883 edition of Emerson's 'Essays', with the first series and the second series bound together, again with a general title page to the start of the work, divisional half titles, and individual pagination.

These essays are concerned with Transcendentalism, a movement Emerson led.
