signed first edition Hardcover
1863 · London
by BUCHANAN, Robert
London: Edward Moxon, 1863. Hardcover. Fine. First edition. December, 1863 ads inserted. Crown a little bumped, else just about fine. Inscribed by the author: "With the Author's regards. Decbr. 1863." The 22-year-old poet and novelist's first solely authored book, verse and drama, republished three years later when he became famous for *London Poems*. Buchanan later became embroiled in much-publicized attacks of Swinburne, Rossetti, and other Pre-Raphaelites. A splendid copy.
