About This Item
London: J. S. Hodson & Son..., 1863. FIRST AND ONLY EDITION. 8vo, 214 x 133 mms., pp. [viii], 87 [88 colophon, iv adverts for books by author], including half-title, address in Cheam crimped in blind on rear free end-paper, original embossed cloth, with title in gilt with gilt ornament on front cover. A fine copy. Abrahall (1829 - 1891) published several books, which attracted appreciative reviews, some of which are quoted in the last four pages of this volume. The story is quite different from that of Handel's Rinaldo (1711). Slightly uncommon in libraries, with copies in BL, Bodleian, Cambridge, NLS; and Southern Methodist University.
