London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1896. Hardcover. Very Good Condition. Item #376010
The editors' ambitious project of reconstructing the literary life of the Victorian period through unpublished letters, private recollections, and documentary fragments. This volume ranges across the networks of authors, publishers, collectors, and critics who shaped the age, offering behind the scenes glimpses of friendships, rivalries, collaborations, and the often precarious business of writing and book publishing. The book presents a mosaic of vivid episodes; lost manuscripts recovered, disputed attributions settled, curious bibliographical puzzles explained, and personal encounters that illuminate the character and working habits of major and minor figures alike. 16 pages, 495 pages, 23 illustrations. Fore-edges untrimmed. Cerise coloured cloth, gilt lettered and decorated spine. Some rubbing and age-related wear, but overall a tidy, sound and clean volume. Size: 15.5 x 20.5 cms. Category: Antiquarian & Rare; New Arrivals. This item may require more postage than the rates shown for delivery outside the UK.
