Beschreibung
An exquisite, illustrated edition of Moore's Irish Melodies. Illustrated by D. Maclise. From the Preface: "Whatever merit there may be in interpreting the voice that spoke in my country's music, lending it a vent in verse, and bringing home to other hearts besides my own the various feelings, sad, gay, or impassioned, with which it teems, to such merit I may perhaps, proudly pretend." Thomas Moore was an Irish poet, singer, songwriter and entertainer. His best known works include 'the minstrel boy' and 'the last rose of summer.' In a full green morocco binding with gilt decoration to the boards and ribbing to the spine, with gilt lettering. Externally, very smart with some shelfwear only. Slight wear to the spine and corners. Front hinge is slightly tender. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright. Spotting to the title page, otherwise just the occasional light spots throughout. Very Good Indeed. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers LTH1-B-1
