A HANDSOMELY BOUND EARLY PRINTING OF THESE IMPORTANT WORKS. Despite Irving's use of an imaginary chronicler Agapida who’s dialogue livens up the flavor of the text the CONQUEST OF GRANADA was the product of careful historical research in Madrid. Irving was serving as a titular diplomat a post which gave him access to considerable resources as well as access to the most important inner social circles. It remains an excellent history on the expulsion of the Moors from Spain. This work along with his THE ALHAMBRA highlights both Irving’s scholarly abilities and his eloquent writing style. Thomas Y. Crowell & Co. hardcover

TWO FINE WORKS BOUND INTO ONE VOLUME. BRACEBRIDGE HALL is one of Irving’s most enduring works depicting in his best style the medley of ideas thrust upon him during his time spent living in England. Irving himself says that he had spent so much time in all stages of his existence reading and thinking about England how the differences between the old country and the new the country of his birth were bubbling all about him. BRACEBRIDGE HALL is his ode to England to tracing the footsteps of history and breathing the poetry of a sanctified land. Irving said that the popularity of his writing is due to an odd reason: “it has been a matter of marvel that man from the wilds of America should express himself in tolerable English. I was looked upon as something new and strange in literature; a kind of demi-savage with a feather in his hand instead of on his head; and there was a curiosity to hear what such a being had to say about civilized society.” WOLFERT'S ROOST AND MISCELLANIES is a collection of essays sketches and stories centered around Wolfert's Roost a historic Dutch stone cottage in Tarrytown New York. The property is named after Wolfert Acker 1667–1753 an early colonial American yeoman and local official who built the original 17th-century farmhouse on the Hudson River. Washington Irving purchased the historic property in the 1830s lovingly renovated and expanded it in the Dutch style and renamed the estate Sunnyside. The book features the title sketch about the estate alongside classic folklore travel pieces and reflections on Dutch-American history. Thomas Y. Crowell & Co. hardcover

TOGETHER A WHIMSICAL AND BELOVED WORK AND A HANDSOME EDITION OF THE GREAT TESTAMENT TO IRVING'S OFT' NEGLECTED ABILITIES AS A HISTORIAN. A companion to his great work on Columbus and written while Irving was a diplomatic attaché in Spain 1826-29 these books were the most painstaking effort of Irving's life. " SPANISH VOYAGES chronicles the voyages of many of Spain’s most important explorers such as Alonzo de Ojeda Ponce de Leon Vasco Nunez de Balboa and Diego de Nicuesa. Irving's "COLUMBUS" was both a scholarly and popular biography based primarily on the work of the Spanish writer Navarrete. Navarrete had published his work on Columbus which contained a number of previously unknown and significant documents. However Irving felt that “the whole presented rather a mass of rich materials for history than a history itself.and the sight of disconnected papers and official documents is apt to be repulsive to the general reader who seeks for clear and continued narrative.” In fact he felt that nearly every account had been incomplete while many important documents and manuscripts had been ignored. Thus he hoped to offer a more rigorous and yet accessible account. Written while Irving was a diplomatic attaché in Spain 1826-29 "it was the most painstaking effort of Irving's life and it won him election to the 'Real Academia de la Historia' the friendship of Navarrete and a literary reputation in Spain where the work is still quoted respectfully" DAB. KNICKERBOCKER'S HISTORY OF NEW YORK is a whimsical history of the city by the mythical Diedrich Knickerbocker. Irving began this work with his brother as a parody of a recently published PICTURE OF NEW YORK a routine guidebook of the period. After his brother abandoned the project Irving moulded it to his own purpose creating a singular work of early American humour. Thomas Y. Crowell & Co. hardcover
