Waverley is a historical novel by Sir Walter Scott (17711832). Published anonymously in 1814 as Scott's first venture into prose fiction, it is often regarded as the first historical novel in the western tradition. The book became so popular that Scott's later novels were published as being "by the author of Waverley". His series of works on similar themes written during the same period have become collectively known as the "Waverley Novels". The novel was well-received by contemporary critics, and well-liked by those who purchased novels in the early 19th century. It has continued in favour with later critics.

Binding with light rubbing along hinges of spine, chipping and/or closed tears at bottom of spine. Minor bumping to bottom corners.
