About this Item
Nice condition antique copy of "Kenilworth" by SIR WALTER SCOTT. Circa 1880's (there is no date of publication stated, but the year 1886 is written on the front end paper); DeWolfe, Fiske & Co.; Boston. This edition features an illustrated title page, a frontispiece (with tissue guard), and numerous full-page illustrations. There is a "Notes to Kenilworth" section and an "Index to Kenilworth" section at the back. From a review: "Featuring sensual politics, plot twists, and murder, Sir Walter Scott's Kenilworth is a mesmerizing tale of love and deception. Written with vivid descriptions and beautiful prose, Kenilworth is part of Scott's beloved 'Waverley' series. With themes of selfishness, love, and ambition, Kenilworth is relatable and emotional. Through the depiction of prominent historical figures and landmarks, Sir Walter Scott shares rich English history with modern audiences." Condition: Clean covers and spine. Sharp cover corners. Tight binding with no cracks and no loose pages. Nice interior - the pages are clean and nearly appear unread with only a tiny stain at the bottom edge of pages 300 & 301. The front end paper has a name/date (1886) written in pencil, and a rectangular strip has been neatly cut out at the top third of the page (perhaps to remove a name or an inscription that had been written on the page). Overall the book is in Very Good condition. Seller Inventory # ABE-1685131571301
