First Edition Thus. Very scarce early edition of this important guide to letter-writing for women. Revised and expanded 5th edition with a new preface and additional material by Caroline Milde. 508pp text + 3pp ads.
Extremely elaborate original binding [by Herzog of Leipzig]. Gold-tooled and blind-stamped sepia cloth, all edges bevelled; lightly marbled page edges and yellow end-papers. Slight rubbing to corners and head and tail of spine and foxed throughout.
Nonetheless a beautiful book in sound condition. [5. vermehrte A.; schone O.Ln. Verbindung miit Goldpragung; stockfleckig sonst gut erhalten. Selten.].
Written by Dr Jeremy Parrott, who has the book in his hands. Nothing here is generated from a catalogue record.
