1882Best.-Nr. 006386London: Sampson Low Marston Searle & Rivington 1882. Thomas carlyle 1785-1881 was considered one of the leading intellectuals of his time; his racism and antisemitism has certainly tarnished that reputation. This work published a year after his death was among several works released by the historian J.A. Froude who had control of his papers. They were immediately controversial. This is a Near Fine copy of the First Edition an uncommon book. Dark green cloth binding with stamped rules; titling in gilt on the spine. Clean text; 263 pages; very bright and clear. Tiny bit of wear at the tips only; both gutters have cracked but remain strong. There are interesting associations apparent in this book.

Hale" who is identified by pencil notations as the jurist Clarence Hale; and notes that his son was a member of Congress. Quite an attractive book; in an archival plastic protector. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Sampson, Low, Marston, Searle, & Rivington Hardcover
