What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Leather Binding

First edition. Complete in three volumes. 

Uniformly bound in half calf, with marbled paper covered boards. Bound with the half title to each volume. 

A novel from former British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, which follows the romantic and political fortunes of a young nobleman named Lothair.

The titular hero is based on the real-life 3rd Marquess of Bute, an orphan who is reported to have been the richest man in the world in the 1860s but who scandalized Victorian society by converting to Catholicism after turning 21 and reaching his majority. 

Lothair was highly popular upon its release and highlights Disraeli's views on national duty and religious tradition.

Condition

Uniformly bound in half calf, with marbled paper covered boards. Externally, very smart, with slight fading to the spines and light rubbing to the extremities. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are generally bright and clean, with occasional spots, mostly concentrated to the first and last leaves.

Very Good Indeed
