Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was a highly popular Victorian author and social critic. He is often regarded as one of the most prolific writers of the nineteenth century, and is most well-known for his works A Christmas Carol (1843), Oliver Twist (1838), Great Expectations (1861), David Copperfield (1850), and many more.
Condition
In the publisher's decorative green cloth binding. Externally, very smart, with just some light shelf wear and bumping to the head and tails of the spines and extremities. Previous owner's signature to the front free-endpaper of 'Martin Chuzzlewit'. Internally, front hinge to 'Martin Chuzzlewit' lightly strained, but remaining binding firm to all volumes. A small stain to the front free-endpaper of 'Martin Chuzzlewitt'. Spotting to the first and last few pages of each volume, and the odd spot throughout, but otherwise pages are bright and clean.
