In a linen-covered slipcase. With frontispiece and 181 illustrations in the text by Hugh Thomson. ◆Spine very slightly and uniformly sunned toward a butterscotch color but A VERY FINE COPY the text clean fresh and bright and the lustrous appealing binding with only the most insignificant wear.<br/> <br/> This copy of Goldsmith's classic is delightful enhanced by the appealing illustrations of Thomson and the book's charming pictorial cover. Riviere is one of the foremost names in English binding partly because the firm did consistently fine work and partly because it was so long in business. Robert Riviere began as a bookseller and binder in Bath in 1829 then set up shop as a binder in London in 1840; in 1881 he took his grandson Percival Calkin into partnership at which time the firm became known as Riviere & Son and the bindery continued to do business until 1939. <br /> <br /> Written in 1761-62 but not published until four years later "The Vicar of Wakefield" was said to have been rescued from some of Goldsmith's unpublished manuscripts by Dr. Johnson who thus saved the penniless author from debtors' prison by selling it to a publisher for £60. Considered to be the masterpiece of the middle-class domestic novel the "Vicar" has never gone out of style because its whimsically delineated characters have a delightful simplicity that somehow insulates them against ultimate misfortune and the innocent and virtuous are rewarded as they should be in the end.
