Beschreibung

First Tauchnitz edition, same year as first English edition, 286pp, marbled endpapers, inner endpapers tanned, quarter leather and marbled paper boards, edges rubbed, ink gift inscription to title page. Bernard Tauchnitz established his publishing company in Leipzig in 1837 and began publishing the works of British authors in 1841. Over the next 100 years over 5000 different titles were published in English, almost always in the same year as the first edition in Britain and always in the same neat small format. From the early days Tauchnitz approach was to co-operate with authors and agree a fee and, as a result, the firm dominated English language publishing in Europe through the next 100 years. Originally issued in paperback, in the 19th century practice of binding books in leather or cloth means that there are a number of different binding styles. Size: 6.25 x 4.5 Inches.
