Item description from seller

A very scarce first edition of this anonymous work based on Walter Scott's Lady of the Lake. Though no author is printed, Thomas John Dibdin was the acknowledged author of The Lady of the Lake, a melodramatic romance in two acts (1810), another spin-off from Walter Scott's verse romance. The Lady of the Lake is a narrative poem by Sir Walter Scott, first published in 1810. Set in Scotland, the poem has three main plots: the contest among three men to win love, a King's feud and his war. This is volume one, complete in two volumes. In a half calf binding. Externally, rubbed with marks and loss to boards. Bumping to base corners with loss to head corners and bumping and loss to edges of boards. Internally, front free end-paper missing and closed tear to page 168, otherwise firmly bound. Foxing and handling marks to pages throughout with cockling to pages. Good Only.
