In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Limited Edition. Complete 30-volume set of "The Roxburghe Library of Classics" from 1904. "Members Edition de Luxe"; published by the Roxburghe Press; New York and London. This is a Limited Edition set - No. 686 of 1,000 copies printed. Each volume is illustrated and many include fold-out facsimile… letters from noted historical figures; each volume features gilt page edges at the top edge of the text block. The set includes works of "History, Biography, Science, Poetry, Drama, Travel, Adventure, Fiction, and Rare and Little-known Literature from the Archives of the Great Libraries of the World." Noted works/authors include: * Edgar Allan Poe * Alice in Wonderland * Alexandre Dumas * Buddha * Sir Francis Bacon * Lord Tennyson * Homer * Nathaniel Hawthorne * Plutarch * George Eliot * Shakespeare * Cicero * James Russell Lowell * Lord Byron * Washington Irving * Dante's Inferno * Virgil * Alexander Pope * Robin Hood * Henry Wadsworth Longfellow * Geoffrey Chaucer * Robert Louis Stevenson * Martin Luther * Goethe * Sir Walter Raleigh * Thomas Hardy * Charles Dickens * Hans Christian Andersen * George Washington * Thomas Jefferson * Benjamin Franklin * The Green Mountain Boys * The Declaration of Independence * Abraham Lincoln * Battle Hymn of the Republic * John Greenleaf Whittier * The Blue and the Gray * Walt Whitman .this is only a very small sampling of the works/authors included in this amazing set! Condition: Overall the set is in very good condition. Most of the volumes have staining to the spine label. The text pages are in overall excellent condition - the majority of the volumes are clean on the inside with clean pages that have no writing, foxing, stains or tears. A few of the volumes have dampstaining to a small number of pages within.but the dampstained pages are by far and away in the minority. The most notable condition flaw with this set is volume IX - the upper-left corner of the back cover bows upward; there is dampstaining to the upper-third of the long edge of the text block; there is dampstaining at the upper-outer page corners up to the contents page.
