Gulliver's Travels. by SWIFT, Jonathan

Paris: Malepeyre, 1822. 2 volume set, 4 1/2 inches tall. An exquisite little set in a Regency full calf with gilt raised bands and very delicate git and blind tooling, so typical of the period, to the panels. A single gilt fillet frames the boards. Engraved portrait frontispiece in the first volume. Printed in Paris in English. With the bookplate of Eleanor Mure crossed out and the signature of R.J Mure above it. Some superficial marks to the boards but overall a very fine little set of one of the most important and influential novels of the era.
