A SONG OF ITALY
1867 · London
by Swinburne, Algernon C.
London: J.C. Hotten, 1867. Green cloth. Publisher's catalogue front and rear. Cloth a bit rubbed and smudged, attractive bookplate, otherwise a nice copy in cloth slipcase. First edition, Carter's primary binding. There is a long pencil note on the first leaf of the inserted catalogue, made by a former owner, asserting this was Swinburne's own copy, based on an ink monogram on the first blank. We are unwilling to maintain the same assertion with any certainty. WISE 38. (Inventory #: WRCLIT30267)
