Mr. Yorick [Sterne, Laurence]
A Sentimental Journey through France and Italy
RARE book containing all four volumes of "A Sentimental Journey", and "A Political Romance". Irish-born English author Laurence Sterne (1713-1768) wrote and first published the "A Sentimental Journey through France and Italy" in 1768 which immediately became extremely popular and helped establish travel writing as one of the dominant genres of the second half of the 18th century. "A Sentimental Journey" ends quite abruptly after its two first volumes, mid-sentence in fact, with the promise of two volumes to follow. This plan was interrupted by Sterne's death. John Hall-Stevenson, a friend of Sterne's, attempted to complete the work. Two volumes containing the continuation were published in 1769 and this rare 1774 edition includes all four volumes. 110x180mm. 328 pages. Seemingly original brown leather Hardcover. Gilt ribbed spine. Cover rubbed. and bumped on corners. Cover corners and spine edges bumped and peeling. Spine heavily rubbed and wrinkled. Inner cover and whitepages age-stained. Few pages slightly age-stained. Few pages slightly dog-eared. Rear whitepage fore edge slightly torn. Pages yellowing and wavy. [SUMMARY]: This extremely rare edition of the classic book is in a surprisingly good and clean condition considering its age.

[Defoe, Daniel]
La vie et les Aventures de Robinson Crusoe - Tome Second [VOLUME II ONLY].
VOLUME TWO ONLY. RARE French edition of Robinson Crusoe with exquisite color illustrations. This novel by Daniel Defoe (1660-1731) was first published on 25 April 1719, the first edition crediting the work's protagonist Robinson Crusoe as its author, leading many readers to believe he was a real person and the book a travelogue of true incidents; thus many editions, like the present one, did not even mention Defoe as the author. 150x110mm. 336 pages. Quarter-leather Hardcover with gilt ribbed spine. Cover stained and worn. Rear cover bottom part peeling and partly missing. Cover corners and edges peeling. Front cover almost detached. Spine rubbed and detached from front cover. Spine hinges partly cracked and worn. Spine edges peeling and partly missing. Sticker residues on spine hinges.

Inner cover, whitepages and few pages age-stained. About half of the pages bottom corner water-stained. Few page edges slightly worn/dog-eared. Some pages slightly age-stained. Pages yellowing and wavy. [SUMMARY]: This extremely rare beautifully illustrated edition of a classic novel that marked the beginning of realistic fiction as a literary genre, and became one of the most widely published books in history, has sustained some damage (mainly to cover), but is otherwise in good reading condition. PLEASE NOTE: This book's cover is very worn, loose or missing. If you'd like, we can send this book to be rebound for an extra charge.
