Item description from seller

Hardcover, blue cloth sans dust-jacket. 90pp., Two illustrations. An early contribution to the question of proposing an ending to Dickens' last unfinished work. Pasted to endpapers and blank prelims are letters written to the Editor of the Times [London] in 1919 concerning the true identity of Datchery. The first of these is by A.E. Taylor of the University of St. Andrews, the British idealist philosopher most famous for his contributions to the philosophy of idealism in his writings on metaphysics, the philosophy of religion, moral philosophy, and the scholarship of Plato. A second contribution is made by Arthur Pinero, an English actor and later an important dramatist and stage director. Both take exception to Times editorial by a Mr. Rolleston purporting to identify Datchery. Some toning to end-papers, else a clean, square, unmarked copy. A very scarce title in its original printing. Podeschi H259 Very Good. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Store description

We are a generalist bookseller who has been selling online since 2003. Our goal is to provide our customers with the best books at the best prices. As a used and antiquarian seller all of our copies are unique and our stock is limited by our ability to source new material from a variety of venues. We strive to describe our books as accurately as possible and have embarked on a policy of adding at least one photograph for each new listing added. Older entries in our database may not include a picture, if this is so please request one and we will gladly send it to you via email.…
