Sobre este item
London: Chapman and Hall, 1882 First edition in English. Translated by Anthony Trollope's son. Original brown cloth, decoratively stamped in blue and gilt. Two volumes, twelvemo. Light shelfwear, back hinge of Volume II starting to crack, bookplates neatly removed from each volume. A very good, bright set. Susanne Curchod Necker (1739-1794) was the wife of Swiss financier Jacques Necker. In her youth she was close to Edward Gibbon, who wanted to marry her, but his father opposed the match. She maintained a celebrated Paris salon, which was frequented by many eminent authors, including Diderot, D'Alembert, Morelet, Buffon, Marmontel, and Chastelux. She was the mother of Madame de Staël.

Our office is located in Los Angeles on West Third Street, between the Beverly Center and Farmer's Market. Though we gave up an open shop after more than thirty years, we welcome serious customers and dealers. We are normally open from 10 to 6 Monday through Saturday. Since some of our less expensive books are located in a temperature-controlled storage area offsite, you may want to call ahead of time to insure that the book you want to see will be available. We feature a stock strong in literature, history, Western philosophy, women's studies, education, history of science and fine printing and artists' books. We are members of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America and the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. We have books from the 15th to the 20th century in all prices ranges. We do appraisals for income tax and insurance purposes. We purchase individual books and libraries. Proprietor: Carol Sandberg
