Ministering Children - A Sequel
Maria Louisa Charlesworth
Seeley, Jackson & Halliday, London · 1867
First Edition. Nice copy of this classic piece of Victoriana. First edition.
A sequel to Ministering Children which first appeared in 1854 and was a best-seller over the following 50 years. Original High Victorian binding of blue pebble-grained cloth over bevelled boards with elaborate decoration in gilt and blind and gilt lettering. Sepia-coated endpapers, all edges trimmed, frontispiece and illustrated title page.
Inner hinges a bit strained but holding. Vague minor shelf wear but generally a clean, bright copy.
Written by Dr Jeremy Parrott, who has the book in his hands. Nothing here is generated from a catalogue record.
