EDGEWORTH'S TALES AND NOVELS
London: Whittaker and co., Simpkin, Marshall and co., et al, 1848.
9 vols., small 8vo (6.5 x 4.25 inches). Half calf with twin tan and emerald labels. Gilt raised bands, very delicate and elaborate tooling to panels, forming a dense wave pattern. Marbled boards, edges and endpapers. Engraved frontispieces and half titles. Damp stains to volume 9.
A very pretty set by this Anglo-Irish novelist, who was an active writer to the last, and worked tirelessly for the assistance of the famine-stricken Irish peasants during the Irish Potato Famine (1845-1849).
