Author: AUSTEN Jane
Title: Volume the Second. Edited by B. C. Southam. NEAR FINE COPY IN DUSTWRAPPER
Description: Clarendon Press, Oxford,, 1963. Sm. 8vo., First Edition thus, on laid paper, with facsimile as frontispiece and folding plate, neat signature on front free endpaper; boards, cloth back, paper label ruled and lettered in black, uncut, a near fine copy in price-clipped, very lightly browned dustwrapper. Contains 'Love and Friendship', 'Lesley Castle', 'The History of England', a collection of Letters, and Scraps. 'Volume the Second' is the only text of Austen's juvenilia of which Chapman was unable to produce a definitive separate edition. Accordingly, Southam's new text follows the manuscript as closely as possible, and is published in the same elegant form as the well-known Chapman volumes. Uncommon in this condition. Gilson, F18.
