London: Printed [by Thomas Davison] for G. B. Whittaker, 1824. 204 x 126 mm. (8 x 5"). Three volumes.. Publisher's drab paper boards, paper title label on spines, edges untrimmed. Front pastedown with the bookplate of H. Bradley Martin; pencilled note on front flyleaf identifying this as the Bellew copy (see below for both). ◆Boards with a scattering of small faint spots, negligible rubbing to joints, spine ends bumped (as always), trivial thin worm trail at inner margin of one quire, but AN EXCEPTIONALLY FINE COPY, the insubstantial bindings with nothing approaching a significant imperfection, and the text clean, fresh, and bright, and with generous margins. This Victorian "three-decker" was issued at a time when publisher's temporary boards, intended to be replaced by a binding of the buyer's choosing, were giving way to publisher's cloth bindings that were "library-ready." With content that is reflected in the work's title, "Ramses" is one of two "exotic" novels by bookseller and orientalist… Read More

Howes D-151. ◆Spine darkened and with a small rubbed patch, covers a little soiled and discolored, minor rubbing to extremities, but the binding solid, and quite an excellent, clean copy internally, with only the most trivial imperfections. This is quite a scarce account of an Englishman's service in the Confederate Army during the Civil War. Captain Francis Dawson (1840-89) was born in London as Austin John Reeks. After attending college, he embarked on a Grand Tour of the Continent before the Southern cause for secession captured his romantic imagination. He determined in 1861 to travel to the American South to be part of the fight. In… Read More

London and New York: Macmillan and Co, 1888. Second edition, American issue. 184 x 127 mm. (7 1/4 x 5"). 2 p.l., 229, [1] pp. Publisher's original blue cloth with gilt titling and decoration. Half title with ink ownership inscription, "Kate D. Wilson, Jan. 26th, 189[0]." Front pastedown with bookplate inscribed "Capt. James Hart, Baltimore, 26 Feb. [19]46." BAL 10583; Edel A-31b. ◆Spine slightly rolled, tiny snag at top of backstrip and one at bottom, light rubbing to small portions of the joints and extremities, but still a nearly fine copy, the cloth and gilt especially bright, the hinges solid, and the text with virtually no signs of use. Like many of James' novels, "The Reverberator" chronicles the adventures and misadventures of American innocents abroad. It opens with the visit to Paris of two young sisters who give an unfortunately forthright interview to a reporter working for "The Reverberator."
