About This Item
1672 RARE 1ed Love in a Wood English Restoration Theater Wycherley St James Park
William Wycherley was 17th-century English playwright whose plays were popular throughout England during his lifetime. In fact, many of his works were performed at the Theatre Royal including "Love in A Wood". This play, his first to be published and performed, was dedicated to the Duchess of Cleveland, Barbra Palmer, one of the many mistresses of Charles II of England.
This 1672 first edition of Wycherley's first work is considerably rare and valuable! A fine work of early British literature and theater!
