D’ARTAGNAN BOOKS

 

These are first edition books in average condition.  They were published by Henry Colburn and Richard Bentley in 1832.  I presume these are the original publishers covers - normally replaced with leather bindings.

There are numbers '719' written to all three books, and inside the front cover of the first book is a whole page of notes, in the same hand.

 

'Memoirs includes Henry V, Oliver Cromwell and John Churchill, Duke of Marlborough, amongst others.

 

These are 1st Editions / 1st Printings.
