Charles Dickens
The Holly-Tree
2019. Softcover. New. The Holly Tree was first published by Charles Dickens in 1855. It's an interesting study of class connection filled with Dickens’ ear for the speaking patterns of various classes. The interaction of classes is also a dawning experience for the primary narrator who in chapter one is exposed to all sorts of horror stories in print but does not hear a story of selfless loss until he invites a servant to sit with him and chat. The book tells a delightful little tale with its dual romance. The “second branch” telling of the elopement of two small children for Gretna Green was one of the best liked of author’s readings and it remains today probably one of the most popular of minor writings of Charles Dickens.The book is full of the kindliest of humor. It gives an odd idea and gets something of the effect of a Fairy Story out of the most unlikely materials. Charles John Huffam Dickens 7 February 1812 – 9 June 1870 was an English writer and social critic. He created some of the world's best-known fictional characters and is regarded by many as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime and by the 20th century critics and scholars had recognized him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories are still widely read today. Born in Portsmouth Dickens left school to work in a factory when his father was incarcerated in a debtors' prison. Despite his lack of formal education he edited a weekly journal for 20 years wrote 15 novels five novellas hundreds of short stories and non-fiction articles lectured and performed readings extensively. He was an indefatigable letter writer and campaigned vigorously for children's rights education and other social reforms.He was regarded as the literary colossus of his age.

All volumes in full dark green morocco extra covers with gilt holly sprigs at corners backstrips faded to rich brown lettered and stamped in gilt all edges gilt each book with its original cloth covers bound in at the end. In uniformly very good condition with just a hint of rubbing to the bindings. Each volume with the bookplate of the famous minister Henry Sloane Coffin by descent to a private collector in San Francisco. A lovely set perfect for reading or handling without fear of damage. § First editions of all five of Dickens’s Christmas books. With engravings by D. Maclise R. Doyle C. Stanfield J. Leech J. Tenniel and F. Stone Thompson G. Dalziel E. Dalziel T. Williams Swain and Groves. A Christmas Carol is the high point and the crucial component in any set of Dickens’s Christmas Books. Dickens kept its production on a short leash and anecdotes abound about his pleasure or displeasure with the differently colored endpapers the color of the cloth for the binding the typography and so forth. Oddly enough despite Dickens’ personal attention to this edition it is not a particularly well-made title. Coupled with the legions of fans who often read their copies “to death†it comes as no surprise that original and well-preserved copies of this book in its correct state seldom appear on the market. The Chimes written in Genoa Italy was commercially more successful than A Christmas Carol and Dickens worked hard to make this second Christmas book a worthy successor. The Cricket. grew from the idea to begin a weekly periodical which would have been called “The Cricket†though was abandoned quickly for a more important venture and the founding of The Daily News. The Cricket was wildly successful doubling in circulation of both its predecessors. Dickens wrote The Battle of Life during a period of recuperation needed after illness attributed to overworking; despite being seriously indisposed he managed to complete the work while working on Dombey and Son though it was not as successful as his other Christmas books thus far. The Haunted Man. was the last of the Christmas books and despite requiring a final rally from the author to avoid disappointing the public the book is considered the least interesting and lowest grossing of the Christmas books; the issue of 20000 had not completely sold when the author died. All books are in their most desirable states as follows:A Christmas Carol.: i-viii 1-166 2 ads pp. First edition first issue. Green endpapers; “Stave I†on pp. 1; uncorrected text throughout; red-and-blue printed title page with four color etchings and four woodcuts full-page color etchings. The Chimes.: i-viii 1-175 1 imprint; 1 advert. pp. First edition first issue. The name of the publishers is a part of the the vignette title page as per the first issue. 11 woodcuts in text and steel engraved frontis and titlepage.The Cricket on the Hearth.: i-viii 1-174 lacks 2pp. ads pp. First edition first issue. With steel engraved frontis and titlepage and 12 woodcuts in text. The Battle of Life.: i-viii 1-3 4-175 3 imprint and ads. First edition second of four states of the engraved title. Terminal ads announce the publication in parts of Dombey and Son and the bound volume of Oliver Twist. In addition to the engraved frontis and titlepage there are 11 woodcuts in the text. The Haunted Man and the Ghosts Bargain.: i-viii 1-188 pp. with engraved frontis and title page and 15 woodcuts in the text. Smith II 4 5 6 8 9. Eckel 116-134. See Chapman & Hall hardcover

A Tale of Two Cities.With Illustrations By H. K. Browne.
8vo. London: Chapman & Hall MDCCCLIX 1859. 8vo ix 1-254 16 etched plates including frontis and title vignette. Full olive green fine-diaper cloth entirely stamped in blind with a three line border which encloses a rectangular frame within which is is an ornament of leaves and stems in each corner and a chain-like design with each link enclosing a four-leafed flower. Housed in a green cloth slip-case. The head and tail of the backstrip are very slightly bumped with some sun toning; minor scattered foxing mostly near plates and some off-setting; a good clean copy in a beautifully preserved original cloth binding. § First edition in the rare secondary green cloth binding. Two of the eight internal flaws identified by Smith as necessary for the first issue have been corrected: “l†and “f†are printed on p.116 and 213 is numbered correctly. Of the latter point Eckel observes “The absence of this error does not invalidate a first edition but it fixes the priority of printing†and Smith concludes “this binding is probably of a later state than the red morocco cloth one†i.e. second issue. “When Dickens began the publication of All the Year Round the successor of Household Words he realized the necessity of making a strong start. So he began writing A Tale of Two Cities publishing the first of the serial in the opening number of his new periodical. As a novel of great popularity it probably ranks next to Pickwick and Copperfield†Eckel 87. This was the last novel in which Dickens worked with “Phiz†after a partnership of 23 years and was published on commission through the renewed partnership with Chapman & Hall. Podeschi A143.
