About This Item
Boston: James Munroe and Co, 1839. First Edition. 8vo, pp. 392, 448. Bound in one volume in publisher's cloth (repaired at the top of the spine) Some foxed, but a very good copy. This is a bound version of the volumes 3 & 4 of the 4 volume set that was put out by R. W. Emerson. The first two volumes were issued in 1838 with an introduction by Emerson (see BAL 5187). The second two volumes were issued in 1839. This may be remainder sheets reissued by the printer. This was issued with a single title page. Also see Dyer page 187. This four volume set (of which this is vol 3-4) would seem to be the all of Carlyle's essays issued to date.
