About This Item
Such a remarkable find. This book represents a fascinating moment in literature where storytelling transcended boundaries, blending allegory with the vivid realities of its era. đ
Sherwood, Mrs. Mary Martha. "The Indian Pilgrim; or The Progress of the Pilgrim Nazareenee." F. Houlston, Wellington, Salop, 1818. Second Edition. A rare 224pp. volume, quarterbound in leather with a decorative spine and marbled paper boards. Despite cracking in the leather fold and some wear on the edges and corners, the book remains structurally sound. The frontispiece and title page show signs of age, but the text block is mostly clear of foxing. A notable collectible for its unique blend of Christian allegory and cultural context.
