Mansfield, Connecticut: Maurizio Martino Publisher, 1994. Brand New in perfect condition. STILL SEALED in the publisher's clear plastic SHRINKWRAP. NO rubbing. NO fading. Bright, clean, square and tight. Sharp corners. NOT a library discard. NO owner's name or bookplate. NOT a remainder. Fresh and crisp -- obviously never read. No date (but 1994, First Martino printing, "Strictly Limited to 225 Copies"). Reprint of the 1923 original. The standard Sir Richard Francis Burton bibliography. Completely describes Burton's first and subsequent editions through 1920. Excellent and extensive annotations place his writings in historical context, define the records of publication, and provide a great deal of little known biographical information on Burton.

Jim Casada, in his 1990 AB article on Burton, called this "an essential guide…" Bound in the original gilt-stamped green cloth.. First Martino printing, Limited to 225. Hardcover.

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole.

Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
