About This Item
London: Chapman & Hall, Ltd, 1911. First Thus. Near Fine. Early 20th century printing of this seventeenth century European sensation; considered an early example of psychological awareness couched in the religious and cultural English and European world in the midst of the Scientific Revolution and an instagator of the move into the Enlightenment. Bound in tooled red leather over boards with gilded lettering to the front and spine. Five raised bands on the spine, and two braided leather clasps - intact and fully present incluing brass fixtures. Top edge gilded, other edges rough cut. Creasing along the front hinge, some small scrapes to the leather; solid and square. With a sweet (3rd) anniversary inscription on first blank, dated 1919.

About John and Tabitha's Kerriosity Bookshop
I love books. Always an eager reader, I started collecting Antiquarian books while a teenager and studying history. Flash forward a couple of decades and I am excited to open a new all-digital bookstore to continue my love of books, while bringing desired books to readers, collectors, and other sellers. From Post-Incunables to modern First Editions, I will be regularly adding new stock.
