A. K. Newman, 1816, Hardcover, Book Condition: Very Good, Dust Jacket Condition: No, First
A long poem telling of the life and death of Harold II, up till his death at The Battle of Hastings. The poem is mainly enjoyed for its verbosity. This copy appears to be the dedication copy with a long copperplate handwritten dedication on the verso of the title page to the then Chamberlain of London, Richard Clark. This copy has been recently recased in a cloth spine, marbled paper boards and new endpapers. The whole is an attractive and interesting copy. Size: Octavo (standard book size). Category: Poetry;
