Near fine complete original in same wrapper. In October 1843 Charles Dickens heavily in debt and obligated to his publisher began work to help his family's meagre income. A Christmas Carol has long since become one of the most beloved in the English language. As much a part of the holiday season as holly mistletoe and evergreen wreaths this perennial favourite continues to delight and rekindle thoughts of charity and goodwill. With its characters exhibiting many qualities often ascribed to Dickens himself the imaginative and entertaining tale relates Ebenezer Scrooge's eerie encounters with spectral visitors. Journeying through Christmases past present and future he is ultimately transformed from an arrogant obstinate and insensitive miser to a generous warm-hearted and caring human being. Written by one of England's greatest and most popular novelists A Christmas Carol has come to epitomize the true meaning of Christmas. From preface: I've endeavoured in this Ghostly little book to raise the Ghost of an Idea which shall not put my readers out of humour w/themselves the season or me. May it haunt their house pleasantly and no one wish to lay it. - C. D." Printed in Great Britain at BookPrint Limited London and Crawley. 147 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7� - 9�" Tall.

First printing mixed state octavo size 707 pp. This was writer Charles Dickens' 1812-1870 third novel widely anticipated and loved. He is often considered the greatest of the Victorian era novelists blending drama and comedy into compelling stories. In this novel Dickens explores the social issues that his works are known for such as harsh boarding schools the privilege of royal title and wealth social customs of the day and the plight of the working class. The plot focuses on the hardships courageously navigated by young Nicholas Nickleby after his father passes away. The extra illustrations provided were drawn by Joseph Kenny Meadows 1790 - 1874 he is best known for his drawings published in Punch magazine. He was a friend of Charles Dickens and several other writers of the period. These caricatures add a visual element to the characters depicted by Dickens n.b. above information from Wiki. ___DESCRIPTION: Half red morocco leather over marbled paper boards six compartments on spine five with gilt title and author in gilt to one compartment embossed decorative and gilt borders to front and rear boards all edges marbled frontis of a young Charles Dickens supplied thirty-nine plates by Hablot K.

Even with these few flaws a better than very good copy with extra illustrations by an artist whose work complements that of Phiz and adds interest to the story. ___CITATION: Podeschi A41 Eckel p. 64. ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

In October 1843 Charles Dickens heavily in debt and obligated to his publisher began work to help his family's meagre income. A Christmas Carol has long since become one of the most beloved in the English language. As much a part of the holiday season as holly mistletoe and evergreen wreaths this perennial favourite continues to delight and rekindle thoughts of charity and goodwill. With its characters exhibiting many qualities often ascribed to Dickens himself the imaginative and entertaining tale relates Ebenezer Scrooge's eerie encounters with spectral visitors. Journeying through Christmases past present and future he is ultimately transformed from an arrogant obstinate and insensitive miser to a generous warm-hearted and caring human being. Written by one of England's greatest and most popular novelists A Christmas Carol has come to epitomize the true meaning of Christmas. From preface: I've endeavoured in this Ghostly little book to raise the Ghost of an Idea which shall not put my readers out of humour w/themselves the season or me. May it haunt their house pleasantly and no one wish to lay it. - C. D." Printed in Great Britain at The Windmill Press Kingswood Surrey. 147 pages. Insured post. First Edition Thus. Hard Cover. Good.
