THE BRAVO: A Venetian Story

183134406London: Henry Colburn and Richard Bentley 1831. 3 volumes. First Edition and the First English edition preceding the American counterpart. 8vo handsomely bound in near contemporary bindings of three-quarter morocco over marbled paper covered boards. The spines with central gilt thistle devices in compartments which are separated by gilt decorated raised bans two compartments with lettering in gilt the text block untrimmed a large copy endpapers marbled. iv 292; 309; 286 pp. A fine and handsome set with very little wear a large copy. SCARCE AND THE TRUE FIRST EDITION OF COOPER'S FIRST 'EUROPEAN' NOVEL the American publication was ten weeks later or more. Cooper is regarded as many as the first truly world-class American novelist. In this work he abandoned for the first time the American settings he is best known for and gives us a historical romance set in Renaissance Venice. His knowledge of the setting came first hand from his own overseas travels. The title is derived from a Venetian term for a hired assassin and THE BRAVO combines political intrigue and back stabbing with love and romance. A rather unhappy ending is in store for the hero. This set is handsomely bound. Henry Colburn and Richard Bentley hardcover

A RARE TRUE FIRST EDITION FIRST ISSUE OF THIS GREAT CLASSIC A TRUE CORNERSTONE OF AMERICAN LITERATURE AND ONE OF THE MOST ELUSIVE OF THE IMPORTANT EARLY AMERICAN LITERARY CREATIONS. James Fenimore Cooper was an avid reader in an age when most literature in America was imported from England. But as an author he decided early on that he could well do a better job of writing for a growing and distinctly American readership than could his European counterparts. And so he began the writing of his â€œLeather Stockingâ€ series of which LAST OF THE MOHICANS is the second book after the introduction of Natty Bumppo in THE DEERSLAYER but the most famous of all the titles in the group and the â€œfirst in which the scout.was made the symbol of all that was wise heroic and romantic in the lives and characters of the white men who made the American wilderness their home.This novel glorified for the many generations of readers in England France Russia and at home some aspects of American life that were unique to our cultural history.â€ Cooper did far more than to imitate the European authors he had read instead developing a great new American style by which quite quickly he became one of the first and greatest literary giants of the New World. His works reflect themes and emotions unique to a people living on the edge of the great American wilderness and Cooper would prove to be widely read not only in America but throughout all of Europe as well. â€˜His achievement.the result of brilliant improvisation.was sustained.to the close of a hectic crowded career. His.fame attests his power of invention.the creation of tension between different kinds of society between society and the individual between the settlement and the wilderness and between civil law and natural rights as these suggest issues of moral and mythic import.â€™ Cooper's works remain to this day classics in American literature. "This is the. most famous of the Leatherstocking Tales". Grolier 100 Influential American Books 34.
