Sobre este item
Boston: L.C. Page and Company, 1898. Full Description:
First edition. Octavo (7 3/8 x 5 inches; 188 x 128 mm). [1]-351, [1, blank], [8, publisher's ads] pp. One of 2000 copies. With the binding in Toole-Stott state ii (Title on spine in gilt, and author and publisher in black), but with no priority given to the three states. With the earlier state of advertisements. Title-page in red and black. With four illustrated plates in black-and-white, including frontispiece.
Publisher's full gray cloth. Front board pictorially stamped in black, white, green and gilt, with a rider on a white horse, with a palazzo on the hill behind and a gilt sky. Spine lettered in gilt and black. Top edge dyed gray. Spine slightly sunned. Still a near fine copy.
"A classic novel which takes place during 15th Century Italy. These are the memoirs of the Beato Giuliano, brother of the Order of St Francis of Assisi, known in his worldly life as Filippo Brandolini." (Amazon)
"Though the action of the narrative recounts the way that Filippo Bandolini came to be recognized as a saint, the ups and downs of the protagonist's life clearly illustrate that the path to righteousness is not always an easy one." (Google books).
