Item description from seller

1910. First edition thus - extra un-numbered copy from an 'Edition de Luxe' limited to 250 numbered copies. xiii, 326pp. a colour frontispiece from a miniature portrait of Henry Fielding and many black and white illustrations. PLEASE NOTE: This is a fairly heavy book and extra postage may apply for delivery outside the UK. Gertrude Mary Godden (1867-1947) was an English author of works on anthropology and folklore. She also wrote a few biographies, and the present volume is concerned with the life of the English writer and judge Henry Fielding (1707-1754), and draws on much new material. Literary criticism has been avoided; but incidents disclosed by hitherto unpublished documents, which add to our knowledge of Fielding's personality, have been given. The book is bound in the original brown cloth covered boards with a red cloth spine and a paper title label on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with some shelf wear and light soiling to the boards. The spine is slightly faded with some soiling to the title label and the spine ends are lightly bumped. The contents are tight and clean with a name written on the top corner of the front fixed endpaper.…
