Lives of the Most Eminent English Poets. by JOHNSON, Samuel

London: John Murray, 1854. 3 volume set, 8 1/2 inches tall. A classic mid-Victorian full calf with gilt raised bands, twin labels, and ornate gilt tooling on the panels. Blind corner tools and twin fillets frame the Trinity College Dublin embossed prize plate. Prize bookplates on each front paste down endpaper. A very good looking set of this celebration of the great English Poets by Samuel Johnson.
