About This Item
NY: D. Appleton & Company, 1864. Hardcover. Civil War-era copy of Dante's masterpiece, translated by Rev. Henry Francis Cary. Good+ in the original brown cloth. The primary flaw is a dampstain at the top corner of the pages, which toward the end of the book becomes larger. Illustrated with 12 engravings from designs by John Flaxman. All plates are present, and all have some dampstain, with plates toward the back of the book as much as half dampstained. Embossed brown cloth has a little wear, and the spine gilding is dulled. Includes an index; 587 pages.
