Four volume 'set' of Byron's works assembled by the nineteenth-century English politician John Hodgetts Hodgetts Foley. Having acquired the third volume of John Murray's 1819 three volume 'Works of Lord Byron' he bound later works (and one earlier) to almost match. While all have floral stamped borders, the patterns are not exactly the same. Similarly the spines are all divided into six compartments with very similar gilt patterns and green titles. All four are different sizes. All four contain his bookplate. Together they offer evidence of one contemporary reader and collector's engagement with Byron's published works. The volume labeled 'Byron's Tragedies' contains Murray's 1821 edition of Sardanapalus, The Two Foscari and Cain. The volume labeled 'Byron's Poems' comprises four separately published works: English Bards, and Scotch Reviewers. Fourth Edition. London: James Cawthorn, 1810. Werner. London: John Murray, 1823. The Island, or Christian and his Comrades. London: John Hunt, 1823. The Age of Bronze; or, Carmen Seculare et Annus Haud Mirabilis. Second Edition. London: John Hunt, 1823. Wear to extremities, occasional foxing. …
