Enoch Arden by Alfred Tennyson.
Published in 1865 by Ticknor & Fields, Boston. I believe this is the first American and first illustrated edition (correct me if I'm wrong).
Gilt-decorated, brown cloth hardcover, with neat diagonal pebbles embossed on the bevel-edged boards. All edges gilt. 58 leaves with text on the recto only, 19 tissue-guarded, black-and-white plates (on the verso only), plus a tissue-guarded frontispiece portrait of Tennyson and a decorative title page.
Good condition. Frayed spine ends, bumped and mildly rubbed board corners, small nick on the back board. Gilt is still clear and bright. There's a faint gift inscription dated 1865 on a preliminary page. Sparse margin foxing, otherwise clean, unmarked, tightly bound.
A very nice copy.
Free shipping in the USA.
Thank you for looking.
