Sobre este item

printed for the author by J Orphoot, Blackfriars Wynd, 1822. 2nd edition, Improved. Hardback. Original Paper spined boards, F. [title page]+125pp, folding engraved frontis, some offsetting to the title page, an attractive copy. A history of the Abbey at Melrose, written by the Keeper of The Abbey, who dedicated this work to Sir Walter Scott. Scott had described the Abbey by moonlight in his 'Lay of the Last Minstrel'. Bower was later to state that he had never given the Key of the Abbey to Scott after dark, so the description must have been written from Scotts imagination. Bower also engraved the frontis & sold the books from his house at the Abbey.

Eastleach Books

All our books offered are in at least good condition, with the majority very good and better. Descriptions are brief, but PLEASE ask for more detail if required. We can scan books & jackets, signatures etc. MINOR inscriptions ignored in NON FICTION titles, unless really detrimental to the book - but then a 150 year old ink name adds character surely? Modern hardbacks are described as being Cloth bound, even though predominantly they come in paper covered boards pressed to look like cloth. Book grades are given book then dustjacket (if any) Running from F - Fine, VG - Very Good, G - Good, P - Poor. A fine book will look almost like the day it was bought, a VG one will have some evidence of prior ownership, G means a nice clean copy, obviously secondhand & P implies a COMPLETE copy that has suffered a hard life & will need some TLC. We take into account the books age when grading, so a 250 year old book graded as VG will look more second hand that a 5 year old book graded the same. On the Net since 1998. All prices are in GBP. Payment can be made by Visa, Mastercard, Switch & Solo or JCB. After your order is placed, FAX your card details etc to +44 (0)1635 48444. Any Book may be returned - but please let us know prior to sending a book back. We wrap each book individually and don't just stick em in a jiffy bag with a prayer. Paperbacks are packed with card stiffeners. WE BUY BOOKS! Happy reading!
