1852LTH3-F-24London: Houlston and Stoneman 1852-3. Leather. Good. 6.5" by 4". None. Two interesting novels bound as one. The first Uncle Tom in England appears to be an english novel which draws a parallel to Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin. The author is not attributed although to the rear there is an essay by anti-slavery campaigner and president of the British and Foreign anti-slavery society Thomas Clarkson. To the preface is written that the author has connected its plot to the work of Mrs Stowe and is therefore to be looked on as an Echo or sequel to 'Uncle Tom'. Several characters share their names with Stowe's. This is the third edition of Uncle Tom in England printed the same year as the first American edition. Uncle tom in England is an extremely scarce and unusual text. The second novel to this text is Benjamin Disraeli's novel Venetia. Venetia was originally released in 1837 and was published so as to form an income for Disraeli in a time of need. It is a romance based on the characters of Shelley and Byron. In a half calf binding with paper covered boards. Externally generally smart with heavy rubbing to spine and boards. Spine label and head and tail of spine are particularly rubbed. Front hinge is slightly strained but firm. Prior owner's inscription to front pastedown 'John P Maitland Family Heriloom'. Another inscription to recto of front endpaper dated 1918. Internally generally firmly bound. Pages are slightly age toned to edges with scattered spots throughout. Good Houlston and Stoneman hardcover

1861LTH16-C-13London: Routledge Warne and Routledge 1861-4. Leather. Very Good. 6.5" by 4.5". None. Two novels from great nineteenth century writers bound into one. Disraeli turned towards literature after his financial disaster motivated in part by a desperate need for money and brought out his first novel Vivian Grey in 1826. The Young Duke was his second novel first published in 1831. Disraeli's writing is generally interesting and his books teem with striking thoughts shrewd maxims and brilliant phrases which stick in the memory; on the other hand he is often artificial extravagant and turgid. Critic William Kuhn argued that much of his fiction can be read as "the memoirs he never wrote" revealing the inner life of a politician for whom the norms of Victorian public life appeared to represent a social straitjacket particularly with regard to his allegedly "ambiguous sexuality." James Grant 18221887 was a Scottish author. Grant was born in Edinburgh Scotland and was a distant relation of Sir Walter Scott. He was a prolific author. Many of his 56 novels are about important characters and events in Scottish history. In 1853 he founded the National Association for the Vindication of Scottish Rights. In a half crushed morocco binding. Externally sound though somewhat rubbed. The hinges are strained but holding firm. Internally firmly bound bright and clean throughout. There is an ink signature to the front advertisement and another to the title of Philip Rollo. Very Good Routledge, Warne and Routledge hardcover
